About athelia...: Athelia is the medical name for missing nipples (or missing one nipple), and is a rare birth defect (a rare congenital malformation). Athelia should not be the only symptom, because these birth defects happen as a group of signs and symptoms. A primary care doctor and/or a genetics doctor can do a full exam and look for other signs, to arrive at a name and outlook for one's problem.
