I had a breast reduction almost 8.5 years ago... I went from an E/F to a C and even down to a B at one point. For 2 years I was on an SSRI, which I stopped taking 3 months ago. In the last 6 months my breast have just exploded, with the last 3 months it feeling like they are bigger and bigger every week. Iam for sure more than an DD now..probably an E. I have a second breast reduction booked for March, but I dont know what will happen to me if I take an SSRI again (which I want to for anxiety)
