Each female breast has 15-20 lobes with a number of lobules and ducts surrounded by fatty and supportive tissue. [www.QinSen.com]

Each lobule has about 30 major ducts that open onto the nipple.

The darker area of skin around the nipple is called the areola. It has large glands around it which produce fluid to lubricate the nipple.
