Inverted nipples at 16 !!!

Hi , 

I have always grown up with inverted nipples and I know it is common for young teenagers to have inverted nipples however they never come out even if its cold. I am starting to get a bit more concered as sometimes I get a little lump in my breasts but this is only around the time of my period . 

I feel anxious to ask any questions in person to my GP so I don't really know what to do ! 

Any responses appreciated , 

 

Thanks !

  • Hi,

     

    I am embarrassed about them too. I am 15 and noticed them not looking 'normal' when I was about 12. I asked my mum and she said they would develop overtime but it is 3 years later and they are still the same. It can take some people more time to develop due to genes or hormones so just wait until you have finished puberty and if they are still the same possibly talk to someone. 
     

    please don't feel like you are the only one because you aren't. I'm sure there are many girls you know who are hiding it due to embarrassment. 
     

    I hope this helped you feel better about yourself :)
