A member asked:

My nipples is peeling skin can i be pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Peeling nipples: Peeling of this area is usually due to irritation from clothing or friction from activity. There is a possibility of allergy to detergent or fabric softener. If you think, you're pregnant, buy a home pregnancy test.
