A member asked:
My nipples hurt when hard and one nipple has white dots under skin what's the cause?

Nipple pain: Don't know if this is related to friction with bra or happens before period due to hormonal changes. Glands of Montgomery are sebaceous glands that are on the areola. Maybe those are the white dots you are referring to.
