Breast reduction before having children? Even if they're years apart?

April 10, 2017
Asked By:Tasha7 in Baltimore, MD

I'm 22 years old . 5'5 180 lbs my bra size is about a 40F-G . Ive been suffering with back, neck and shoulder pain for years. & now i have developed bruises. Alot of people are saying the procedure would be pointless if i end up having kids afterwards. i don't intended on having kids for another 5 yrs or so . i know this may be a ridiculous question , but is it worth it to have a breast reduction before kids ?
