I have the state ACCHHS insurance and I want to get a breast reduction. I was diagnosed recently with thoracic spondylosis and slight scoliosis. My back pain has been very extreme. My breasts increased in size during my pregnancy and are now a 34I-36J based on measurements. I a hoping to get down to a D or DD. I don't wear bras most of the time because they dig into my skin, but when I do, I wear tighter sport bras. I have been losing weight but not breast sizes

Answer: Breast reduction From your description it seems you would benefit from a breast reduction. I encourage you to contact your insurance provider to check coverage and criteria. Some carriers may cover a breast reduction but only after certain other pain relief options are tried (physical therapy, etc).

Answer: Breast reduction I don’t know if state insurance would cover it. You would be best off going to the university hospital where they can better figure out if you are eligible. Also state insurance pays the doctor so poorly you would have a hard time finding a plastic surgeon in private practice willing to do it.

Answer: Reduction You may qualify, but your primary care physician will need to refer you to a plastic surgeon. Many insurance companies also require that you have been treated for at least 3 months for back pain, rashes, etc.

Answer: Breast reduction Hello,I appreciate your question. Without a photo, I can’t provide a very precise assessment, but based on your bra size, it seems you have significantly large breasts. Large breasts can lead to issues such as shoulder pain, back pain, neck hernias, rashes under the breasts, difficulty in moving comfortably, and challenges in finding well-fitting clothing. Pregnancy and weight fluctuations can also cause changes in breast size. The only solution to alleviate all these complaints is breast reduction surgery. With this surgery, you can achieve a breast size that is anatomically suitable for you.
