Bullshit. That's half the truth. Nipples which change later in life are signs of cancer and these are called Retracted nipples. This includes nipples which have changed their direction.

Girls who have had inverted nipples since birth do not have it as a symptom of cancer. An easy way to test is by stimulation, on a inverted nipple stimulation usually brings the nipple erect, on a retracted one the shape remains unchanged.

Even so, a nipple which has been inverted since birth is no a sign of cancer. Nipples which change shape/form later in life may be a sign of cancer and should be investigated.
