Hello I’m a 25 yr old woman with no children and for a little over a year my nipples itch on and off and the skin from my nipple becomes dry and scaly and peels off and then goes back into its normal state then starts the itching cycle again about 2-3 months later

Hello. Use some Natural oil. It could be due to being dry.
