some women have the wider blackish area of there nipple.some other have not.why?


Question:


Answers:
The aereola. It's genetic. It also changes if you are pregnant or have had kids. It is generally larger on women who have big breasts.

Since babies are born with poor eye sight, the aereola acts as a 'target' letting the baby know where lunch is.it doesn't actually serve a purpose to feed the baby, as milk comes out of the nipple itself.

Other Answers:
The area becomes darker after pregnancy. The glands there are different from rest of the breast skin. The glands which carry fats and proteins are always darker, e.g. those in arm pit and genital areas, called apocrine glands.
Till there is no pregnancy, this area remains light.
