My daughter just turned 12 years old in June. Since then she has gone from a 34c to a 34h. She is unable to run in gym class and having many social issues at school. She wears a size 0 in pants and is extremely to heavy. I was wondering if she would qualify for breast reduction surgery? I don't want her to start having other medical issues because of her breast size.

Answer: 12 At 12 years old, it is too early to consider breast reduction. Her breasts will likely enlarge further. She may need another surgery if a breast reduction is done too early. If your daughter has reached puberty and the breasts are not getting bigger, then a surgery could be considered.

Answer: Breast Reduction - 12 year old | 34H bra This could be a case of juvenile breast hypertrophy and certainly we would not do breast reduction until the breasts have fully developed, but in this case of breast gigantomastia where it causes physical and psychological effects at such an early age, it is not unreasonable to consider breast reduction surgery. Understanding the fact that she may require another operation or more in the future. Best Regards,
