Will a breast reduction help reduce cyclic hormonal breast pain?

July 24, 2019
Asked By:Brj2019

Every month in the two weeks before my period I suffer from very heavy tender breasts. They usually grow a size during this time and then reduce a size after my period. I'm 31 and size 32II (US size )/ 32GG(UK size). From the surgeons I've spoken to I'm under the impression that if I have a breast reduction the symptoms will decrease because there is less breast tissue to become tender and heavy. I'm hoping breast reduction surgery will reduce/ alleviate these symptoms?
