      Nipple retraction is female common diseases. The most common causes of inverted nipples are as follows:

      Improper use of bras: Bras that are too small, too tight, or used too early can cause nipple indentation.

      Clothes that are too tight: Especially for women during the breast development period, underwear that is too tight can easily lead to nipple retraction.

      Nipple retraction should start in teenage years. All mothers, aunts and other direct relatives of women with inverted nipples should be targeted for prevention.

      Nipple indentation is also related to heredity. clinical Observing mothers and their mothers’ generation, and those whose grandmothers have a history of inverted nipples, the next generation is more likely to suffer from inverted nipples than normal people.
