Breast Reduction before I'm done having kids or should I wait?

It is very unusual for breasts to “grow back” after a breast reduction.  And it sounds like you are really struggling with your breast size. Breast reduction can interfere with the ability to breastfeed, so don’t count on breastfeeding if you proceed. You're correct that a future pregnancy may compromise the results of a breast reduction procedure, and so you may need revision surgery. On the other hand, if your back pain is severe and causing other physical issues, it may be wise to go ahead with the procedure. I would schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can examine you in person and help you consider these pros and cons. Best of luck. 

Thank you very much for your question. There is no reason why you cannot have a breast reduction now, even if you are considering having more children in the future. While there is a chance that pregnancy and breast feeding will have an effect on your breast tissue, the immediate improvements may be worth the risk. I recommend that you schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. At this time, he/she can perform an in-person examination and discuss your breast reduction options. 

I think that your decision will all depend upon the symptoms that you are having. If you are having difficulty with back pain and skin rashes, having the reduction sooner than later will improve your overall quality of life. There is a chance that having more children afterward could affect your results. But there is a better chance that it will not have a dramatic effect. I would say that if you have plans to have another child in the next year, it makes sense to wait. If you just have plans to have more children some time in the unknown future, I would proceed with your surgical plans.

It makes a lot of sense to wait until you are done having kids is you can stand it. Breasts change dramatically with each pregnancy, sometimes getting larger, but sometimes getting smaller as well. If you are miserable you could do it sooner, but then may want a repeat or adjustment in the future.The right answer really depends on you and your goals.Best wishes. 

This would depend upon your comfort level. I recommend caring for yourself before considering hypotheticals. If you want more children, I would discuss this with your surgeon to see if they are comfortable or recommend surgery now or later.
