If I got a breast reduction, will my breasts grow back with birth control?

January 24, 2023

I am 18 and am currently a size 8FF(au size) (or 30FF uk sizing). I have struggled with having large breasts for a couple of years and it is particularly worse as i am a dancer. I have been on the birth control pill for about 2.5 years and am planning on staying on this as it helps with my cycle. What i am worried about is if i were to get a reduction would my breasts grow back since I am young and on a hormonal birth control. I cant keep going with my breasts being the size they are.
