In 2011 I was diagnosed with tuberous breast before I tried a BA. After that I desisted! Now after 6 years and breastfeeding a child I am re-thinking my decision. At that time the surgeon told me that for sure If I was undergoing BA procedure I would have had double bubble deformity! What do you think?
