Slightly confused - I thought that the number is your back size and the letter is the cup, so does this not mean that they won't actually be able to reduce the 40 bit down? So you will end up for example as a 40B?  Or is it more an uplift than a reduction? Curious about how this kind of breast surgery works!
I absolutely agree with those saying it is your body, and no-one has the right to try to tell you what to do. |
I actually have not been "professionally measured" but my plastic surgeon looked at them and guessed around a 40/36 DD....could be larger or smaller. The fact about their size is only partially my problems. When I was only 15 I had a serious case of Mastitis, YES Mastitis, and NO I was NOT pregnant or breastfeeding. I had to go to a breast specialist...I was only 15 and at that time my breasts were only about 34 Cs. That being said... a year ago my breasts grew in less than two months from a 34 C to around a 40DD. That being said you can image the stretch marks, hard and soft tissues and the amount of discomfort from their rapid growth. And then I started rapidly losing weight, causing them to loose breast tissues and cause extreme sag and loose skin. I am only 20 and I DONT NOT want to have my breasts sag to my bellybutton when I sit or for them to lay on my sides when I lay on my back. Another reason for the surgery is I have a strong close history of breast cancer. So I like the fact that when the surgeon does surgery he has a chance to find if their is anything wrong on my insides. Another reason for surgery is my constant pain and tenderness and tough lumps of tissues, when I say lumps I don't mean so hard its cancer, but they need to be "cleaned" out and lifted. I am having a reduction and also a lift. I only weigh 134, but I am muscular and active but I cant be as active as I used to be. And another reason for surgery is simply because I hate them, I hate how big they are, and I don't find them sexually appealing to me or anyone who loves them too, I find that a turnoff...its not about having big breasts, or looking sexy and full. Its about me loving my body again, having less issues with my breasts and being able to do a lot more than I felt comfortable doing before. I honestly don't care what size they are or how much they weigh, the fact that they give me problems and aggravate me everyday is enough reason to go under the knife. And also my two insurances approved...and they dont just approve for everyone. I am only 20, and I need to live my life happy and confidently.
