A member asked:
Is it normal for your areolas to be two different colors? i'm due for my period next week.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not for most: Most people have same colored nipples. If this has been true for your whole life then it is likely not a cause for concern. If this is a new finding then schedule a visit for an examination.
