pros: minimal pain, excellent shape so far, my breasts don't touch my belly button anymore.

cons: nausea, tenderness, the drains, narcotics, healing pain/ sensations.

I had too large of breasts for my build. I'm 5'1" and very thin. The surgery will allow me to fit better into clothes, not be stared at by dirty old men, and it will hopefully relive my back, neck, and shoulder pain

I'm on birth control and am worried once I go off of it my breast will shrink even more. I had breast reduction to alleviate pain and boost my self-confidence. The surgery took 4 hours because there was mostly very dense breast tissue so there's minimal fat. So, when I go off birth control (Aviane), will my breasts shrink/ sag?
Great review?
