Hi, my name is Mira and I’m a 24 years old single female.

When I was 14 years old my nipples started to sore and feel itchy. I felt that I’m having someking of a desease but I didn’t try to get help. I was scared and shy. In the age of 19 I had the courage to visit a doctor then I was diagnosed with a Breast Fibroadenoma in my right breast. Then I had an urgent surgery to remove the tumor which was 6cm. my doctor also told me that I’m suffering from nipple eczema and gave me a cream called "Fucidin" but i didn't get any better. Since then, I stopped visiting my doctor due to the pain that I feel during examination. I sometimes apply olive oil to decrease the dryness of my nipples and calm down the rash.

Would you please tell me if there is a cure for my problem? and I always wonder why am having this kind of eczema even though I’m not a breatfeeder?

My final question is, do you think that my eczema will prevent me from breastfeeding future?

I’m sorry if my English isn't that good.



Thank you,

Mira
