What Causes Brown Nipples After Miscarriage?
Hi, i not so long ago had a miscarriage and just had my first period since but it was quite bright red so im guessing it was brand new blood as i was pregnant but i now also have brown nipples which i have never had. Could i be pregnant or are these just signs of hormones after miscarriage?

Hi,
Nipple color change is a part of the process during pregnancy. Even after an abortion, until the pregnancy hormones cease, this and other features of pregnancy may be seen. Since you have had a period subsequent to your abortion, continuation of the pregnancy is unlikely but this finding of discolored nipples may be considered as related to your pregnancy and hence will disappear to some extent in course of time. Another pregnancy is unlikely if you have just had your natural period. Hope this helps.
