This is also another problem, I want to go into modeling and my boobs are stopping me from doing this. I would use alexia breast reduction pills, I am wondering at my age can i take them? I don't think it would harm me but I want to be sure PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give me some answers, thank you x

A pill for reducing breast size?

I wish I had a magic wand, but the chances of that happening are about as great as a "breast reduction pill" working! Don't waste your time or money. If you truly have breast hypertrophy (breasts too large for your body), then please consider an actual breast reduction. See a surgeon who is certified by the American Board of PLASTIC Surgery. Best wishes!

Breasts Reduction with Pills?

Thank you for the question. I would not recommend your plan of action. I think you need to be seen in consultation by your primary care physician to discuss the safety and efficacy issues associated with the medication you mentioned. A few years from now you may be a good candidate for breast reduction surgery. Best wishes.

Breast reduction pills

Not a good idea. If your growth is stable, then consult with a plastic surgeon about breast reduction. Be aware that large breasts can come back with pregnancy and weight gain so this most likely will not be a one time/forever fix. Properly done, you should get a good twenty years out of your surgery, especially if you remain as healthy and active as you are now. Also be aware that you will have scars, and that how well you scar is at least partly genetic, and... more

Double D breasts in teenagers

Some girls do develop earlier than others and it can be very embarrasing, humiliating and unfairly picked on by your peers. Unfortunately there are no pills on the market which selectively reduce the breast size. At you age, the breasts are very glandular with minimal fat, so liposuction will not give you significant improvement either. The only option you have is a breast reduction (since you are a minor, your parents have to agree and sign for this surgery). You are not yet fully... more

Breast reduction with pills

I have never heard of any pill that will help reduce the size of the breasts. I suppose weight loss meds if you are morbidly obese may help you lose fat if the breasts are fatty.

Pills to reduce breast size

The pill you mention, Alexia, is a dietary supplement that includes 'natural' ingredients and green tea which claims to reduce the fat selectively in the breast. It is true that low body fat and exercise will slow breast growth or reduce the size of the breast, though the pills are unproven. Talk to your pediatrician before you take the herbal medication. Best of luck, peterejohnsonmd

This is not a medically recommended treatment and I would first consult with your pediatrician and possibly and endocrinologist to make sure your growth has stablilized and if there are no other medically treatable solutions for your problem. Liposuction may provide you with some temporary relief with minimal scars but is not capable of producing major reductions in size nor of lifting a ptotic breast. However, it may provide you with some relief at this time. After discussing this with... more
