Want to learn more about the body? Take a dive into the hidden world of the clitoris (it’s like an iceberg down there!). So now you know: When it comes to nipples, there’s a massive range - from bumps to size and even amount! A nipple’s worth isn’t in how much it lactates, but in how you care and treat it because there’s no one version of “normal.” But as with any other part of your body, if you’re ever concerned about something your nipples are doing (or not doing), your best bet is to see a doctor. Older studies in the 1970s and 80s show records of males producing milk that’s similar to lactating women, but there hasn’t been more recent studies since. Some experts say it’s often due to major hormone surges.
Inappropriate lactation, also known as galactorrhea, can affect men, but it’s incredibly rare.
