What are the causes of nipple inversion and can it be relieved?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I am a 22-year-old female. I have known about my inverted nipples since before, but I was embarrassed to tell my parents and didn't go to the hospital for a thorough examination. Hello, doctor, what are the causes of inverted nipples, and can they heal on their own?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to the situation you described: The condition you mentioned is that the symptom of nipple inversion has reappeared. As you said, this situation is actually quite common. For treating this condition, it is generally possible to correct it first through your own methods. You can frequently use your fingers to pull the nipple outward, or you can consider buying a syringe, cutting off the tip, and then placing it over the nipple to create negative pressure and draw it outwards.
