Having a third nipple is more common than you might think! It's called supernumerary nipples! Fun fact - Supernumerary nipples can even lactate in both men and women!

During fetal development, milk lines form & thicken in the fourth week of pregnancy. In some cases, parts of these ridged lines persist, leading to the appearance of supernumerary nipples.

While people don't need to remove their third nipple for health reasons, some opt for removal due to personal preferences or cosmetic reasons. Seek medical advice if your extra nipple causes discomfort, has discharge, or shows unusual symptoms. Regular check-ups help monitor for any complications. Your health matters!
