jesus christ, put a warning on that like "Picture Included" or something.  :icon_blink:

Mine haven't changed a lot, they got a lil bit darker and rounder but not much in size, and no you can't see them.

I asked my endo this question and he said it's mostly due to genetics, but I've read that progesterone can help... but if it is genetics then it throws the progest idea right out the window. *shrugs*. Maybe just cross your fingers lol!

It is well documented that it is our curse to have smaller than average aerolas than a genetic female.

However tattooing can change that, but after HRT has had it's run.

That's cool to know. Never knew you could do that.  ;D

I'm sure it does depend on genetics.

Mine became huge, but remained quite pale in colour, while my partners have darkened very nicely but are nowhere near as big. So it totally depends on how you are wired.
