A member asked:
My sister, 17 years old. her nipple is inverted (since birth) and the other one's not. is it normal or not?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nipple inversion: Nipple inversion can be unilateral or bilateral. That is what is normal for her. However, if a nipple that was previously protruding becomes retracted inward - that is cause for prompt medical evaluation.
