Barring surgery, there is no effective method to reduce the size of the Montgomery glands. These glands are common in most areolas, and may become irritated or enlarged as any gland .
A spurt in their size is a sign of puberty, after that they darken if u are pregnant, the areolas become large and Montgomery glands are visible and of course the mammary glands also inc. in size.
from everything I have read it is an oil that the Montgomery glands secrete to lubricate the nipples/areolas and get them ready for breastfeeding.
i have had an infected (swollen) gland since march now and although it is nothing to worry about as it is refusing to go away i am currently awaiting cosmetic surgery to have it cut out. you could ask your gp to refer you to a breast clinic near you...
Oh, dude, you're asking about those little bumps on the areola? Yeah, men actually do have Montgomery glands, just like women. They're there to keep the nipples lubricated and moisturized, but don't worry, it's not like guys are out there producing milk or anything. So, yeah, we all have those little buddies hanging out on our nips.
Yes. The bumps you're referring to are called Montgomery glands or Montgomery's tubercles, and they can become more prominent during pregnancy. These bumps can resemble pimples and can spread out sporadically around the areola. The number of the bumps can range anywhere from around four up to 28 or so per areola.
No, Montgomery glands are not an STD. They are sebaceous glands in the areola around the nipple that produce oil to lubricate the nipple and areola during breastfeeding.
Oval areolas can vary in size, shape, and appearance. Common characteristics include being slightly elongated and wider than they are tall. They may also have a smooth or slightly bumpy texture. Variations can include differences in color, size, and the presence of Montgomery glands, which are small bumps on the surface.
Montgomery's tubercles are small "bumps" on the areola of the nipple. They contain subaceous sweat glands that lubricate the nipple. They have often been associated with the symptoms of pregnancy but are not a sure sign of pregnancy. Most common symptoms associated with pregnancy are nausea, vomiting, and breast tenderness, and missed a period.
no, but I think areolas are very beautiful.
