First of all, let me say that I don't have implants - my breasts are just natural DDs. I work in a predominetly male industry, and I appear on video podcasts a lot (I work for CNET reviewing technology). I feel that my breasts are the reason I've gotten so far so quickly. And no, I haven't slept with any of my bosses or anything, but during interviews I can always feel their eyes on my chest. In short, that makes me feel really self-conscious. Would getting a breast reduction to a C or maybe even large B cup be a good idea?

I had a reduction from DD - going into a DDD, down to a C cup. I am VERY happy that I am not carrying those huge boobs around. THey are quite annoying. Hoever, if you dcide to get a reduction, make sure you search for the best doctor. I have bad scars under my arms (just outside my breasts.). I had no idea the doctor would be cutting there. Just make sure you research him/her first.

Before you do anything as drastic as surgery, try a few other remedies.
I'm well-endowed as well, and I've been self-conscious about my chest too. I have been wearing minimizer bras for a couple years and they work wonders! The bra I wear is a 38DD. I've tried Bali and Lillyette brand, but my fave is Wacoal. You can find them priced fairly reasonably on eBay-- and don't worry, sellers cannot sell used undergarments on eBay.
If you don't like the results of trying a different bra or trying a bit of weight loss, then visit your doctor. But when I consulted a doctor I was informed that my insurance would only fund the reduction surgery if I had a documented health issue which could be attributed to my breasts (like a back problem, etc.)
Good luck!

This is something only YOU can decide for yourself.
If you have health issues, then a reduction would benefit you and could be covered by your health insurance. I had my 38J's reduced to a 38C and got approved by my insurance without needing documentation (they only took pictures).
If you have no health issues, then only do it if you want to, because it would not be covered by your health insurance.
You could try wearing minimizer bras, which kind of squoosh your breasts. Get properly sized first at Nordstroms or Sears or JCPenney (not victoria secret as they do not size bigger women correctly).

A physician can cause them to smaller yet i do no longer understand in case you will ever locate one which would. i think of you pick counseling till now you do something like that. Your physique of concepts does not sound healthy. Your breasts are frequently fatty tissue, alongside with milk ducts and help ligaments. Breast relief is the place they do away with the fat. in case you have no longer have been given any fat, they had could desire to do away with the milk ducts, and that may no longer regularly occurring.
