does inverted nipples mean breast cancer?

does inverted nipples mean breast cancer?

Hi,
I am D and I recently found out my sister in law may have breast cancer and she said one of her breast nipples was inverted. After the birth of my son when I was trying to breast feed the nurse told me my LT breast nipple was slightly inverted and it would be hard to feed him on that side. I have no symptoms or problems and it isn't like that now but I am concerned.

TU for UR time

Inverted nipple can be an indication of breast cancer but certainly not always. I can't speculate on your Sister-in law's case but I'm sure she will be having testing to determine the cause. In your case since the nipple has returned to normal I'm sure it was related to your pregnancy and the milk production in your breast.   Regards ....
