Patient's question:
24 years old, no sexual activity, but the areola is very dark, the nipple is inverted, and has not been seen by a doctorDoctor's answer:
Hello, is your inverted nipple congenital? Caused by developmental issues? Or did it recently appear? The color of the nipple and areola may gradually darken with age in women, and this could also be a normal physiological phenomenon. If the inverted nipple recently appeared along with darkening, it is more likely a sign of a disease and requires early examination at a professional hospital for breast ultrasound. If the inversion has been present for a long time, it is more likely a normal physiological phenomenon and there is no need to worry. However, an inverted nipple can significantly affect pregnancy and breastfeeding, so it is recommended to actively seek professional medical treatment for nipple inversion correction.
