Inverted nipples :-(

Um, my nipples are completely inverted, which has never bothered me, personally. I have stupid huge boobs and have always felt so self conscious about the size, so it's never occurred to me to worry too much about my nipples, even though I knew they weren't "normal." In honesty, when it's come to sex, most men have enjoyed my boobs as they are, I think?!

Am watching Embarrassing Bodies Down Under And there's a woman on there with nipples like mine - according to the narrator they're "the worst kind of inverted." Apparently this woman won't ever be able to breast feed (I assumed I wouldn't but don't want kids so no issue there) but have all the men I've had sex with been secretly disgusted at my nipples?! :-(
are there potential health problems? Would any other fellow inverts care to advise?!

That programme sounds like rubbish!

While it can make breastfeeding initially more difficult if you have inverted/flat nipples, afaik it doesn't usuallyprevent breastfeeding and the sucking of your baby makes the nipples much more convex and pronounced anyway.

I really don't think anyone will have been disgusted by your nipples at all.

If you are worried about possible health risks associated with inverted nipples you could ask your GP. Aesthetically, I think it's just like having an inny/outie tummy button: we are all different, and grown ups just don't care.
