My Nipples Have Gotten Bigger With Age, How Can I Correct This?
I Have Always Had Beautiful Breasts with Normal Size Nipples. Now That I'm in my Late 40's I have some sagging but my nipples are HUGE! They're the same size but I've even tried to cover then up with bandaids. I Thank God everyday I have my healthy breasts but this nipple problem has definately caused me some distress. Especially when gentlemen gawk at them. Thank You for any input I recieve.
