Hamster, I politely beg to disagree.. I think this forum, the women's support forum on PC, is a great place for her to start this thread. I don't think this should be the only place she looks for answers to her questions, but I think this is a great place to start. As a general audience, it wouldn't be unlikely for at least someone here to have some sort of experience with breast reduction. This issue also relates to self-esteem, and that something many women deal with on a daily basis.

asp, I can't directly relate to your question, as I've always had a small bosom. Personally, I find that even mine get in the way at times, and can't imagine having them any larger, and being athletic on top of it! I did have a friend in college though that had a breast reduction done. Her's was done out of health necessity as she was getting terrible back pain from hers. She also still had large breasts after the reduction (I want to say she was still a D after all is said and done). She also enjoyed going around to people, "Want to see my scars?! <FLASH>" but I really don't remember much scarring. I do remember that she had numbness in her nipple for awhile, but I believe that eventually went away. Again, this is all hearsay from a few years ago. But she was very happy with the results. There's also creams you can use to lessen the appearance of scars.

I would talk to a doctor about all the details. They will have better answers than most here at PC. But remember, this is YOUR body, and you should do what YOU like with it. You have to live with the results of whether or not you get surgery, no one else. So, do what's right for you. You don't need the approval of anyone here at PC, or really anyone else in your life. I suppose, if you were in a serious, long term relationship, your significant other would like some say in the matter, but even then, the decision is ultimately yours.

Just keeping doing your research, and feel free to continue posting here. It's perfectly normal to be scared about this.

Good luck, keep us updated!
