Normally, a woman’s nipples are soft and flat, but become firm and erect when they are stimulated. Inverted nipples do not become erect or respond when stimulated. This can be physically uncomfortable and produce emotional distress, especially when it only affects one breast. Inverted nipples may develop during or after puberty. When this occurs later in life, it is important to make certain that there is no condition within the breast itself causing the nipple to become inverted or tethered.
