Why do my nipples not stick out?
Up to 10% of the female population have nipples that do not stick out from their breasts. This is a common condition and, in most cases, not harmful. In all cases, a small procedure can help to correct the Nipple so that it Everts naturally once and for-all.Inverted, or retracted nipples are surprisingly common
It is estimated that 9 to 10 percent of women have at least one inverted nipple.
An inverted nipple is often congenital, meaning it will have been present since birth.
In most cases, it will affect both sides and is a result of tight connective tissue or issues with the ductal system connecting to the nipple.
In turn, this pulls the nipple back, causing inversion.
In terms of your health, with most cases, having an inverted nipple won’t affect you, even in breastfeeding.

Should I be worried about inverted nipples?
Inverted nipples are not usually a sign of anything serious medically, although any sudden changes in your Breasts should be reported to your doctor as it could be a sign of breast cancer.
For most women, the issue is more a question of how they look and how they make you feel.

What are the grades of inverted nipples?
There are 3 grades of inverted nipples. This scale is used to classify the severity of their inversion and help to determine the best course of treatment.Grade 1
The lowest level of inverted nipple.
Nipples will often appear flat but may sometimes evert (push-out) as a result of temperature changes and without manipulation.
Grade 2
Nipple is slightly more inverted.
Nipples can normally be pulled out manually but will soon retract once external force is removed.
Grade 3
The most severe form of inverted nipple.
Nipples often cannot be everted (pushed out), even with repeated manual manipulation.
