What is a characteristic of grade 3 inverted nipples?

A characteristic of grade 3 inverted nipples is that they will never evert. This grade indicates a more severe form of inversion, where the nipple is retracted and does not protrude with stimulation or compression techniques.

In women with this condition, attempts to express milk may be challenging, and breastfeeding can be more difficult because the infant may struggle to latch on effectively. Understanding the characteristics of inverted nipples is essential for healthcare providers to offer appropriate support and interventions for breastfeeding mothers.
