NO Longer a 36GG I LOVE MY NEW BOOBS!
I hit puberty at 11 and was one of the first girls...
I hit puberty at 11 and was one of the first girls to get larger breasts. I was always tramautized by a comment a boy made about them (he got the first sexual harrassment detention at my jr. high for making the comment to me. I cried in high school when I had to get a D bra - still remember where I was in the store. I got diagnosed with Crohns disease when I was 22, I have always been curvy and I like having an hour glass shape, but as Ive gained weight and lost weight over the years, my breast size has increased, they get bigger but never go down, even when Ive lost 20 or 30lbs. So now I am 5'7, 30 and have saggy boobs at a 36GG, I just got married in Feb. and had to order a strapless white bra from England to get one in my size!!
The last few years I have been having the lower back problems and shoulder paid from my straps. Wrapping xmas presents is always the worst, I always have to take breaks from bending over all the time! I want to cry when I see myself sideways in the mirror.
My husband loves them so I feel bad about changing them, and Im a lil worried about the scars, Ive had multiple ab surgeries over the years due to my crohns so I have a lot of scars already. I want to be a 36DD, maybe go down to a 36D if possible since I still plan on having kids in the next couple years, my ideal would be 36dd ;) I still like having a larger chest, Ive always had one, IM used to it.
My aunt had a breast reductions 13-15 years ago and was very pleased so I a going to the Dr. she and her sister used. I have my consult on March 18th and am super excited/anxious. Im worried about missing more work (since I just took off olast mont hfor my honeymoon) but I know getting insurance approved is always an issue. My aunt also said this dr. made her loose some weight to make sure her breast size didnt go down, so she thinks he will want me to loose more weight too, grr.
Has anyone else's drs. had them lose weight in order to get the surgery?
Does anyone know the benefits of also getting a breast lift with the reduction?
I know that insurance only covers the reduction, I also have a skin disorder on the underneath part of my breasts (secondary crohns issue)

Welcome to the community!!! Oh girl you are going to feel like a new woman once they are reduced and lifted. I can't even begin to tell you how amazing it feels to have this done.
And don't cry when you look at the pictures. I know it feels terrible but we have all been there and I promise it will be fine. On another note; I also have Crohn's Disease and I did really well with both my tummy tuck and breast reduction. No issues or flare ups from either surgery.
Can't wait to hear more from you.
