big breasts are in my genes as all the women in my family have had big breasts. In MAY I had a breast reduction (from G to D) because I had saggy boobs and it was not till later when I realized I could have done breast lift instead. I did not even come up with that option before. Now I regret my decision so bad as I miss them a lot am not exaclty happy with my new body. If I eat foods that contain estrogen would that help? I am currently 25 so I do not think they would grow or would they?

Answer: Maybe Large breasts are often inherited. The other thing to consider is that breasts grow and shrink duting various stages of life. They start growing at puberty. Typically this growth is complete by the age of 22-years. They grow further during pregnancy and breast feeding. After breast feeding has completed, the breasts shrink (and can often droop, unfortunately). They can shrink and droop further at menopause. Weight gain and loss can also increase and decrease the size of the breasts (a lot of the breast is made up of fat) Weigh gain/loss can follow a genetic pattern, so can your response to pregnancy and menopause, but in the main, weight gain and loss is due to an individuals diet and exercise habits. So, in a sense, yes, your genes can affect breast 're-growth' after reduction surgery, depending on which stage of life you are at. Thanks, and best wishes.

Answer: Is it more likely for my breasts to grow back after reduction when I have it in my genes? Before undergoing the BR, did your internist or OB/GYN evaluate your hormone levels? An increase in weight, a hormonal imbalance, and certain meds could impact the size of your breasts. A breast lift would reshape the tissue and reduce the size of the areola. It only tightens the skin which will make the breasts more perky. In general, large breast reductions are better left at D cups, because if the breasts are left too small there is not a great solution. It would be silly to perform a breast reduction and then turn around and perform a breast augmentation because the breasts are now too small. You have to realize that after breast reduction, your belly, legs, and arms will appear bigger as well. Finally, the skin envelope and fullness generated from a D is usually more aesthetically pleasing.
