Why do not breasts change size and shape when my nipples become extroverted?

I'm 15 and I have inverted nipples. I know my breasts are still developing and inverted nipples can become extroverted at times. However why is it when my nipples become extroverted my breasts change size and shape pretty drastically. My breasts normally are a conical (tuberus) shape, when my nipples become extroverted my breasts become slightly more full and more rounded. The most "extreme" results happen when exposed to heat or cold directly [like in the shower], where my breasts become much rounder and fuller looking. Why does this happen? Is there a name for what this is?

    It's hard to tell without a picture you should ask your doctor.
