What can i do if my nipples don't stick out is that normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, everyone's : Nipples are unique. If your nipples have always been inverted that is fine. They will likely protrude with breast feeding and breast stimulation. But if a nipple that protrudes becomes retracted into the skin it needs to be medically evaluated.
