Asked By:Dessy26 in San Clemente, CA

I am 5'4", 106lbs (tiny!), and my breast size is currently 74cms under my bust, 88-92cms over my bust so roughly a 34DD-E. MRIs reveal VERY dense breasts. I am seeing many women here the same breast size as me who have had >300grams taken out. So WHY???! only 200-250g in my case??! Is he being super conservative? Is this an Orange County cultural thing??! Please advise! I'm devastated! I'm so uncomfortable but 200g hardly seems worth putting myself through this!
