I would say yes based on my mother's areola which has faded to nearly the color of her caucasion skin. She is 72. My friend and her sister (50 and 45 years old, both post menopausal) have nipple color that faded to very light. They are English descendants. I am using compounded hormone cream and my areola is dark. Hence, the lack of sex hormones may cause the melanin to leave the areola.

Why are your nipple leaking when im a teen boy?

Nipple leakage in teenage boys can occur due to hormonal changes during puberty, which can lead to temporary breast tissue development and discharge. It may also be a sign of gynecomastia, a condition where breast tissue enlarges due to an imbalance of estrogen and testosterone. If the leakage is persistent or accompanied by other symptoms, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and guidance.

Is leakage from one of your breasts an indication of breast cancer?

Not necessarily..if the leakage is yellow, green, bloody or like an egg-white see a doctor. See a doctor anyway. Some women leak without giving birth through sympathy or empathy for mothers who are breast feeding. Leakage is not necessarily a bad sign but check it out. Further signs are if the leakage occurs more than once, is only on one side, or happens without squeezing the nipple. As with most things, there are many possible causes that are not cancerous - such as medications - but don't let this deter you from checking it out with a doctor. It could save your life.

Should you worry if you are 43 years old and your nipples have been sore for three weeks and you are not pregnant?

Hi, Nipple soreness can be a sign you are going to have a period arriving soon hun. There is no need to worry about nipple soreness unless you notice a nipple discharge. Take care. This is also the time your body is preparing to go into peri menopause and your hormones are doing dips and dives, highs and lows. Nipple tenderness, soreness or your breasts feeling bloated (along with feeling bloated in your tummy) are some side effects. Eventually (all women are different and it can take 10 or less years from now) you will go into full menopause where you cease to have periods at all, but still have the highs and lows of hormones, feel cranky, moody, cry for no reason, hot/cold flashes,gain weight (or you may not depending on your genetic structure) and depressed at times. Not all menopausal women go through all these side effects. It's wise to go on the Internet and start learning about peri menopause and menopause as it's simply just another phase of a woman's life and not the end of the world. When I went into menopause I dealt with it naturally and I found I had more time to do the things I never had the chance to do before. I went back to my writing, good at artwork, work part-time, etc. There is no reason to worry of this as it's natural.
