Patient's question:
The left nipple is slightly concave and smaller than the right one. What could be causing this? Does it affect breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
Nipple inversion can affect future breastfeeding. It can be pulled out frequently to make it protrude. In your case, it may come out and then sink back in, which is common for many people. You don't need to worry about it. When you have children and start breastfeeding, you can pull it out for the child to feed, and it won't have a significant impact. If you're concerned about its appearance, surgical correction can be done. Other methods are generally ineffective.
