Can I fix my Mildly Tuberous breasts with a method other than plastic surgery? (photos)

Mikeike1
I'm 20 and I am positive my breasts are finished growing. do I have underdeveloped breasts maybe because of a hormone deficiency? I've been taking birth control since I was 15 because I would rarely ever have a period. Could the birth control have caused/covered up an underlying problem? Is there any type of hormone therapy I could undergo to fix my tuberous breasts and finally cause them to develop? if surgery is the only way, will insurance cover it, since it's classified as a congenital deformity?
