A member asked:
My areola on my right breast is turning white and my nipple is a bit darker than usual. i'm definitely not pregnant, so what could it be?

Hormonal: It is probably hormonal changes at your age- as you age these things change. I would ask a general surgeon who specializes in the breast to examine you.
