Hi, My right breast nip has pretty much always been inverted. It made it difficult for my children to nurse from it. After my lumpectomy it popped out. It is a little different than the other one, but it's out. Strange.

Hi,
You would need a clinical examination by a physician before a confirmed answer to your question can be got.
Inverted nipples are eith permanent or temporary inversion - and further management varies accordingly.
What is your age? Any other features that you have noticed on breast self examination?
The option of plastic surgery is also avaliable for correction or protraction of the nipple.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.
