Does Graves Disease Affect Breast Development?

July 25, 2021
Asked By:Vivid771169 in New Orleans, Louisiana

I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease my sophomore year of high school, and I’ve been on medication since then (I’m 20), but I was wondering if or how this disorder affects breast development. I’ve always had small breasts like 75% of an A cup while my mom and aunts and cousins have bigger breasts, mostly C cup and B cups. My mom and aunts also had thyroid issues. Maybe I just pulled the short straw in genetics, but now I’m strongly considering implants (unless hormone help would work). Thoughts?
