Is nipple retraction a disease?

Indented nipples are a condition that usually manifests as a failure or difficulty in protruding nipples and may affect lactation and breast health. Indented nipples

may be caused by a variety of factors, including congenital and acquired factors. Indented nipples may be inherited in some people, while others may result from breast disease, trauma or other physical abnormalities.

Although inverted nipples may be inconvenient to an individual's life and health, there are ways to improve them. For example, the use of breast pumps or manual suction devices can help protrude nipples, making them easier to breastfeed. In addition, some surgical or non-surgical treatments can also be used to treat inverted nipples. If there is a problem with inverted nipples, it is recommended to consult a doctor for more detailed advice and help.
