Why are my breasts changing?

I noticed today that my aerolas are no longer dark brown, and are now the same color as my skin. I also noticed both nipples have basically disappeared, like they are completely flush with my breast, nothing protrudes out anymore. My right breast feels smooth all over, while all you can feel on my left breast is the on-going itchy dry skin patch next to my nipple. I've tried antifungal creams and pills, hydrocortisone, etc. but it still itches like mad and won't go away. Just curious if anyone else had these issues? Not sure how concerned I should be?

32 years old, not pregnant or breastfeeding, was actually born without ovaries and have been on HRT, no changes to doses in years.

Yes, these changes were sudden. I can't get in to see a doctor until August...just got insurance again in a new place so I have to start over with new providers.

Hi there.  this sounds like a sudden change?  In all honesty, I'd speak to your doctor about this type of breast change.  It's most likely just hormones shifting but get checked out to be sure.  Let us know what they say.
