Hi K - No worries. You don't have breast cancer. You're growing, going through puberty, and it's natural that your breasts (and nipples) grow at different rates, and simply look different at times. I'm sure things will even out as you get older. In the meantime - kudos for being aware of your breasts and how they look and feel, because when you're older, it's very important that you notice and report any breast changes to a doctor. For now, though - have fun! PJH
