Tomorrow is the Big Day. Washington, DC
I've been struggling with the decision to go forward for a long time. I rescheduled 4 times beginning this summer. Each time the office staff has been very pleasant and kind. I've gone from two consults and Dr.Oretro has patiently answered my questions without ego or fatigue. She's been practicing for 30 years. To my knowledge she specializes in reconstructive surgery bu g from the other reviews on line she has an asthetic eye as well. I am 38, 5"5 and about 190lbs. However,

Getting Nervous Before the Big Day...
Hello everyone! I've been considering a reduction for easily 15 years, and now the stars have aligned and it's going to happen in about 10 days, if all goes as planned. This site has been of great help to me leading up to the decision, so I'd like to thank everyone who has taken the time and effort to post. I will try to put up some pix as well. I'm a 38DDD+ and would like to reduce to a C or a D, haven't decided yet. I'm wondering if a D will droop more as time goes on.
Hi all, I can't tell you what a relief it is to find this site! I'm scheduled for surgery on June 1 and I'm so nervous about it. It's so reassuring to read all your stories and see that my feelings are shared by so many of you. I'm 46, 5'1", 120 lbs and I've been a 30G for the last 15 years. I get by with a 32DDD bra, but my right breast is always leaking out of the cup. People are always shocked to find out how big my breasts are - I
I am a 5'9" 27 year old female living in Washington, DC. Since I was a kid, I was overweight. As I grew older, so did my girth. I grew out of junior's size clothing at 12 and had to wear women's sizes. By the time I got to high school, I was 200lbs. With my age, my weight increased, until I hit my peak weight in 2009 of 245lbs, wearing a size 22. I have been struggling with my weight for years- I could never motivate myself to go to the gym or diet properly.

I started developing very young, and had boobs by age 11. They continued to grown throughout high school. Freshman year I was sized at a 32 DD, an almost impossible size to find anywhere. Today I wear a 34 DD, but wonder if I am closer to a DDD as I haven't been sized since freshman year. I weigh 120 pounds and love to run and exercise and within the past few year my breasts have made that hard. When I played sports in high school I would often get rashes and end up with raw skin
Hi.. I'm going to update once I get a chance. I'm a 31 yr old African-American female with 3 babies. I'm 5'9" & 268lbs and trying to lose 8lbs by my surgery date.

I am a 29 year old female who been battling with breast since maybe 12 years old, around 16 they just grew out of nowhere to the point where i was going through bras every other month believe it or not. i experienced back pain, severe migraines, posture always curved and feel like why me with these over sized boobs..

Had always been a firm and perky 36B, and very satisfied, as was the hubby. Once when I put on about 15 lbs was a pleasant and curvaceous 36C. Have always been a bit asymmetrical - you know what they say, everyone has one side of the bod slightly smaller. But with the downward pull of that darned thing called gravity...Deflation City...the breasts began a permanent flat line. Suddenly found the need to wear padded bras for cleavage...then the right slightly smaller breast began

I should have been started writing aboout my decision to get a breast reduction. My friend initially told me about it 2 years ago. I put it on the backburner because of other obligations. The first time I went to see a surgeon he was very off putting and kind of made me rethink my decision. Two years later I am still experiencing all kinds of pains, headaches, bruised shoulders, cuts, rashes, and so forth. It came down to the point where I was getting tired of putting tissue
