Hello, I'm fifteen and I'm wondering if there's any way to prevent breasts growing any bigger. Yeah, I know that I'm in my rapid growth state and all, but there might be exercises to prevent this, right? My mom told me if I get into a specific sport, that'll be able to help prevent breast growth.

Answer: Exercise May Not Do the Trick If you are of normal weight, exercise will not help you reduce your breast size or prevent it from growing bigger. For a permanent solution, breast reduction surgery is the only answer, although it involves a rather strict patient selection to minimize risk of complications. Breast reduction is best performed on someone whose breast development has stabilized. However, it could be performed earlier than ideal if it is causing severe physical discomfort, chronic back pain, rounded shoulders, and other untoward side effects of overlarge, heavy breasts.

Answer: No Great question. Unfortunately at the moment we do not have a way of stopping breast growth in medicine. There is no exercise of over the counter medication that can stop your breasts from growing. Being thinner and leaner in general means you are less likely to have large breasts, just as if you gain weight your breasts may also get a bit larger, but outside of that there is nothing we can do other than just see how they develop. Once you are done developing, if they are large and bothersome you can consider a breast reduction, which makes for some of the happiest patients that I care for. -Dr. David Mattos, New York Plastic Surgical Group
