Hello.......Many women are worried or anxious about a few hairs growing around their nipples.The areas around the nipples or the areola have hair follicles just like any other normal skin area. However, sometimes women develop a few long hairs around the nipple, and this is usually associated with hormonal changes related to puberty, menstruation, pregnancy and menopause.Dont worry about it.
