Is there an objective way to measure the weight of breast tissue?

Asked By:heathersg

I would like to get a breast reduction covered by insurance. I wear a 32g or h or 34f or g. Admittedly, they don't look that big. But, they dig into my shoulders, cause back pain and racerback bras cause numbness and tingling in my fingers. I had a consultation and the surgeon said I was a good candidate, but that he worried I'd be unhappy with the size after removing enough to meet insurance requirements. Insurance denied me based on that even though I met all the other requirements.
