I, too, have and have had for last 5-6 years, terribly sore nipples, flattened and pale in color. I am postmenopausal have regular mammograms which have been normal. I am wondering if a postmenopausal woman can actually have estrogen dominance.

Yes they can - I had complete hysterectomy (ovaries & uterus) removed at age 44 and am now 67. Was shocked at breast biopsy to find out that I was 91%-100% estrogen receptor positive. Keep undergoing mammograms and if you have dense breasts, ask for magnification views to rule out any lesions. Also be sure to do your own monthly breast checks.
