I am 17 year old girl and my left boob is about a C36 and my right is about half the size. They are also as saggy as my mothers but she has smaller boobs and is in her 50's. I saw my doctor and she told me that they should even out once my period starts to even out. My period is still not regular. But for the saggy part it really affects me I can't wear a strapless because it doesn't look right or good. I'm not sure if I should start exercising and it will work or not. Please help!

Answer: Breast asymmetry and sagging
Unfortunately, breast asymmetry and sagging is very common. Treatment for cosmetic improvement will require a breast lift which treats the sagging aspect. A small reduction can be performed on the larger side to even out the differences. Scars on the breast would be the trade off, but they fade over time. Certainly, as you continue to age, have children, and weight fluctuation, there is always the possibility for appearance changes in the breasts. I would consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to see what would work best to enhance your look.

Answer: Probably won't even out with time
If you have this much assymetry at age 17, you probably won't get magically better. We often see young women who have this problem. Each case is individualized because the breasts are so different. Some women just need a lift on one side, an enlargement on oneside, or a reduction on one side. Still others will need surgery on both breasts to get the best result.
Plan on making an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area and you can discuss options.
Good luck,
Dr T
