I would like to know when it is a good time to have a Breast reduction. I have wanted to have a Breast reduction for a number of years. I used to have a 36 DD on a frame of 5'7" and 145 pounds. I recently had a baby (2 months ago) and am not breast feeding, nor do I plan to do so anytime in the future, if I have more children. I am still maintaining a very large breast size (36 G) and would like to know if I should wait longer to consider having the surgery in hopes that my chest may shrink down some more.
I would recommend waiting at least 3, preferably 6 months, before having surgery. You want to give your breasts an opportunity to stop lactating and shrink in size. You should be aware that breast feeding can be effected by breast reduction surgery. If you are not planning to breast feed now, or in the future, having the surgery should not be an issue for you.
