Someone asked about dimple rings and whether it helped.  I have only had
one woman use it and she felt that it didn't help her.  Which got me to
thinking about this woman and several others I met with inverted
nipples.  What all these women had in common was that they were of the
Muslim faith and all wore the long body veils called chadors.  They had
the worst inverted nipples I have ever seen.  Alot of these women were
related by blood or marriage.  I remember the one mom who said to me,
"If you think this is bad, you should see my sister." And yes her sister
was much worse.  Her sister had this beautiful attitude and I found
myself asking her why she had persevered for so long when so many others
give up.  She said very simply that breast milk was her son's
inheritance.  She would not deny him his inheritance.   Valerie W.
