Can I have a breast reduction while overweight?

March 20, 2018
Asked By:HazelGrace427 in Fort Wayne, IN

I'm 5'1", 18 years old, and 290 pounds. I have G cup breasts and they put a tremendous strain on my body. I developed breasts at a very young age, 6 years old, and they've grown rapidly since then. I have back, neck, shoulder, and chest pain from my breasts. It's very hard to exercise when my breasts are as large as they are. Is it possible I could have a breast reduction done while I'm overweight?
