Are Tubular Breasts Hereditary?

July 21, 2009
Asked By:Sandra paul in turky

I'm 21 years old and I think I have a tubular breast. I didn't know that until I saw some photos in the internet yesterday. They were exactly like my breast. I have a narrow base but it's somewhat long and there's asymmetry between both breasts. What are the causes of it? Is it hereditary? What can I do about it? It's really a nightmare for me.
