Need a second reduction. What are the risks for a second one?

Asked By:Cinnabon5264 in Boston, Massachusetts

I am 5'2" and 110 lbs, 28 yrs old and i had a breast reduction at age 16. I was a 32H and was reduced to a large 32C. Since then i have been on 1 kind of birth control pill from 2017-2019, had a pregnancy that ended in a miscarriage near the end of the first trimester. My weight has fluctuated between 102-115 during this time and from 2016-2021 my breast size remained constant. In 2022 I grew and now im a 32F. Would there be any reason why? And what are the risks with a 2nd one?
