Hello, I am 30 years old and have noticed mainly my left nipple goes inverted, it isnt always like that though, I have tried searching to find out if if its Cancer the nipple stays inverted? my breasts have changed over the last year but I wouldn't say that different or different in a bad way that you see on posters and signs or warnings for cancer, I really don't want to go to the drs about this if cancered inverted nipples stay inverted. I appreciate anyone's help.

    My nipple was inverted but stayed that way and unfortunately I was diagnosed with lobular Breast cancer 12 months ago. I had a mastectomy and immediate reconstruction. I am now cancer  free

    I cannot emphasise enough to you to go and see your gp and get yourself checked as soon as possible by a medical professional. The earlier cancer is caught the better chance of a full recovery albeit you may not have cancer. Good luck and let me know how you get on xx

    Hi Janice

    I would make an appt with your gp and let the medical professionals decide if it is a problem. Unfortunately I don’t know the answer.  It will put your mind st ease as there may be a simple explanation. Take care xx

    See your doctor ASAP and demand a mastectomy and ultrasound! Don’t fool around with this. I had a slight indentation which was cancer.

    Ladies do not believe your doctors if they say pain means it is not cancer. It may be “Probably not” but I can tell you that I had  soreness which was cancer. The idiot dictor tried to send me home but I screamed I want a mammogram! Lied about when I had the last one.  During daily radiation treatments I met MANY women who were in late states of breast and ovarian cancers because their doctors told the. if it hurts it is not cancer. wrong! My case, the cancer was pushing against something, and made me sore.
