Answer: I’m 19, 5’7, weigh 155 lbs, and wear a 34D. Am I a good candidate for breast reduction? Hi. If you are larger breasted then you would like to be and are otherwise healthy then you would likely be a good candidate for breast reduction. Of course, you need an in person evaluation. I would recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon with good experience with breast reduction to be able to examine you and go over the specifics and the options with you. I have included a link to some typical before and after photos if that is helpful. Good luck and take care, Dr. Howell

Answer: Breast reduction Hello, thank you for your question !Without an examination it is hard to give a definitive yes or no answer.A great way to find out if your breasts are the cause of your back pain is to hold the weight of your breasts off of your chest to see if this alleviates the pain. If it does, it is more than likely your breasts that are causing your pain. D breasts are usually not dramatically large on someone who is 5'7. You may want to consider buying a more supportive bra before resorting to surgery.
