A surgeon I consulted with said that after they take the required amount for insurance, I'd probably be a C cup or maybe even a small B. For reference I'm 5'6 around 170 pounds and a 34G. I have hard time visualizing how a B/C would look. Will I look disproportionate? My shoulders are wider, I don't have a flat stomach or skinny arms. I don't mind the aesthetic shape of my breasts, but I'd like them to sit higher. Would going that small totally change the shape or make the aesthetics worse?
Female 44, 36DDD, height: 5'4, weight: 170lbs, using Military Tricare Select East/Humana. Based on that information, is it possible to end up with a small 36C after a breast reduction using the Schnur Scale?
Im a 36DD, III will be weighting 175lbs at the time of surgery, Im 54 on my DL but an MRI showed that Im 55, maybe bc I was laying down but right now were using the DL height, and I was told that I might be a 36B after the surgery based on the schurn scale, and that seems too small. When I calculated it says that I would have to remove about 460gm but the surgeons nurse said 500gm needs to be removed. Is that correct? I want to be a small C-cup, bc I do sports and Im in the military.
I'm 5'6, 185lbs, and wear a 36M bra. I am considering a reduction to deal with back pain. No surgeon I have spoken with is willing to give me even a rough estimate of how much tissue they might remove. My goal is to go down about five cup sizes, but the nurses have told me, Most patients end up a B or C. That would be a loss of 11-12 cup sizes, which I think would look ridiculous on me. Is there a medical reason why a surgeon would be unable to take only 1000 g per side?
I'm trying to see if I should go through the process of a breast reduction. I have upper and middle back pain often as well as indents in my shoulders from bra straps. I also just don't like the way my large breasts look. Last I was fitted I am a 36DD. I'm 5'6 and 175lbs. I have had a child as well and breast feed for 8 weeks. I'm 10 months postpartum. Any feedback would be appreciated.
I'm 5'0, currently 170 pounds. I'm trying to lose weight before consulting a doctor about a breast reduction. I have been at this weight before and gotten down to 135, but my breast size never decreased. I remained a 34GG the last time. I'm very embarrassed about being that large , whether I'm 170 or 135 pounds. How does a doctor determine size? Would reduction be different if I was 170 versus 135 pounds? Thanks for your time.
I am 19yo with a 38DDD breast size. I'm also 51 and weigh 170-180. Growing up I developed serious back pain and I was also bullied through middle school for having big breasts at a young age causing me to have chronic depression and a really low self esteem. Would I need to lose weight in order to get a breast reduction? Would insurance cover part or the whole procedure?
Im 57 and 180lb, breasts have been huge since puberty started I was a DDD in middle school. Im 35 and would like to reduce them as much as possible and still look nice in clothing. The breasts arent overly saggy just heavy and causing pain in my back.
I currently weigh about 170lbs and am about 5'1. I will be having surgery soon for my breast reduction but just thought of a question I forgot to ask my surgeon. I am currently at 38G. I am hoping to be a C or small D. I looked over the notes and read she would be removing 550g from my L breast and 475g from my R breast. Would that get me close to what I want?
