Asked By:Lillypad667 in Seattle, WA

I am 17 and have been told I have reached my adult size at 5'3 and 135 pounds. growing up I was always very active. When I hit 15 I went from a small b cup to a 32 DDD. My breasts have stoped growing but they cause a lot of back pain and also selfconsiousness.along with that i am hindered in my ability to exercise as I have to wear at least 3 bras.my right breast is also much bigger than the left. I understand rthat I may be young, but would my symptoms qualify me to get a breast reduction?
