A member asked:

My little girl of 8months has a hard lump under each nipple. is this normal for her age and still somehow hormone related? noticed it the past few days. should i get it checked out?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get it checked: We’re way too far out from delivery for this to still be hormone-related from birth. Especially as it’s potentially a new finding. Get it checked out to be sure.
