Ans D looks like melanoma irregular mergins >5mm in size and most imp increasing in size why should a nipple increase in size at 25

  #9

A is most suitable because it is present since birth and increase in size during pregnancy.

D

irregular margins can not be in accessory nipples.

A simple nevus can do exist from the birth and then later in life becomes malignant.

It should say REGULAR MARGINS!!!

So, answer is A.
