Hi everyone i just wanted to put this in a seperate post as i am a little worried about my nipples and areola. I am a 27 year old male and i have started NBE nearly 6 weeks ago, using BB and saw palmetto, and also a noogleberry breast pump. BB seems to agree with me and i seem to be developing quite fast. I havent had alot of breast growth yet if any, just some good swelling after using my noogleberry, but my nipples and areola have enlarged greatly over the last 6 weeks, they have also become alot darker and have little nodes on my areola if thats the correct word. My whole nipple area is swollen i do have breast buds i believe underneath my nipples and they have got bigger and a little softer over the last couple of weeks but they have pushed my hole nipple area outwards producing a mound, with my nipple sitting on top. And to be honest does this sound like what should be happening and im so embarresed about my nipples and areola, they are so large is this normal, and should they be getting darker. Im a little confused at the moment and i have started wearing a bra to try and cover my nipples up as they have been rubbing on my tops and becoming very sore and they stick out a mile. Im sorry to ask so many questions but i am worried, also does anyone know if my nipples will stay like this, or will they start to shrink back as my breasts grow if they do. Thanks everyone i hope i havent offended anyone with this post and i hope someone can give me advice to ease my worries thank you so much x

i dont know if anyone else has responded to you about this or not, but i figured i should. when your developing breasts they starts as buds, and the nipples protrude more than they should at first. as they get larger, the nipples will stick out less. i think the darkening has to do with the estrogen. it sounds like everything is ok, but if your really worried you should speak to a doctor about it, but it seems like everything is in order to me, my breasts were like that when i was starting puberty.

Hi Buta, thank you for replying. And i have had some response to this and i realise it is normal, i suppose it was just a shock to me, how fast this had happened and how large they have got. I am not worried about it now, the only thing that concerns me now is how can i hide this, but i realise that now i have started to develop breasts that i may not be able to hide it as i seem to be responding very well to BB.I am still taking BB as this is what i have wanted for along time but i am considering stoping but i am still undecided. Thank you so much for your response and i wish you well. x
