Why am I mature, my breasts are also very large, but there are no nipples

Patient's question:

Why am I mature, my breasts are also very large, but there are no nipples

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the Condition: In your case, it is nipple inversion. The degree of nipple inversion varies from person to person. Mild cases only show varying degrees of nipple retraction, where the nipple can be pulled out by hand or protrude from the surface through negative pressure suction. Severe cases are fully submerged within the areola, unable to be pulled out, and often grow in the opposite direction. Of course, even if these inverted nipples are pulled out, they are generally small. There is often no distinct nipple neck. The incidence of inverted nipples in women is 1-2%. The degree of inversion on both nipples may be inconsistent, and it can occur in only one nipple. It is a common female condition. Nipples deeply inverted into the areola not only look unattractive but can also accumulate dirt or oil, causing itching, eczema, or inflammation. Severe inversion makes it difficult for infants to suck milk, causing inconvenience in daily life and psychological distress for the patient.
Recommendations: If you notice inverted nipples, women should seek timely correction. Depending on the situation, the following methods can be chosen:
1. Manual traction. Puberty is a crucial period for breast development and an important time for correcting nipple inversion. Regularly pulling the nipples can make the breasts more prominent, increase the support of the surrounding skin, and help "shape" them. Do this several times a day. Over time, the nipples will naturally gradually protrude outward. If they can't be pulled out, you can first gently push the skin near the nipple outward.
2. Suction therapy. After pregnancy, use a breast pump to suction the nipples several times a day, utilizing its negative pressure to help the nipples protrude.
3. Nipple correctors are used to treat flat or inverted nipples.
