Yes, I've seen all the other questions about breasts being uneven but my problem is a bit more than that. I'm 15, and my left breast is significantly larger than my right one. In fact, I think I might be missing the pectoralis muscle. The bottom of my right breast has filled in a little bit (i'm talking about just a little bit, not enough to even fill in the smalled bra) and there is nothing on top. My breasts and the structure of my chest area have been like that since I was born. I’ve never seen a specialist about it, although my pediatrician knows about it. My mother feels that I’m still to young to see a specialist about it (since I’m still kind of young and a little shy about it). I was wondering if anyone has the same problem or knows anyone else with the same/similar problem.

My problem is not quite like yours, but it's similar. Mine were uneven most of my life. They eventually got better when I was in my mid 20's. You won't stop growing for a few years yet, and they may even themselves up. You should see a specialist to see what can be done, but hold off on anything like implants until you finish growing. I know it is hard, but remember there is nothing wrong with you! :-)

breast are next to never even unless they've been surgically altered. Just for most people the difference is so small that under clothes it's unnoticable. When I started developing breasts I had the same problem. One was significantly smaller than the other. Over time they evened out. Go see a specialist but wait until they finish developing before considering making them even.

Most women have breasts that are uneven, and for some reason, it's usually the left one that is larger. In some women it's a minor difference, and in some it's a big difference. It is normal. If you are really concerned, I suggest seeing a gynecologist.

Invariably they're different. I'm not convinced you're "missing" the pectoralis muscle, but something's going on. I know you're shy about it, but if they're radically different you should get checked. If they're just marginally different (they'll never be perfect), then it's probably okay.
If you're "missing a muscle" you have more problems than just your breast size. It's just uneven development, and that's common.

Being a teenager and going through so many changes can be hard. If you are worried about it you can talk to your family dr.
