breast reduction?

Question

I'm 43 and my breasts are very large. I'm overweight. Would breast reduction be a good idea at my age? i think I'm overweight because of my breasts, kind of hiding...

Answer 1

Of course you can look into a breast reduction at your age!

If you have ANY back pain or health issues because of big breasts, a reduction is VERY good at dealing with the back pain!

I had mine done Feb 2006 (38J to 38C) before I turned 32 and I do not regret it one bit!

Insurance covered it 100% as well.

I was also slightly overweight and I still got approved.

Also just an FYI, sometimes even when one loses weight one may not lose in the breast! If your breasts are more dense, you will NOT lose in the breast! If your breasts are more fatty, then you may lose in the breast. You will never know until you work out and lose weight. I tried this and it did not work, so I had a lot of dense tissue in my breasts and a reduction was the only way to go.

Answer 2

I feel you on this, I want a redux too, I think that would kick start me to excersize harder and more frequently- also clothes hang at your breast and can make you look heavier than what you are! If you can get it, do it!

Answer 3

Common sense... if you loose weight you breast will reduce on their own.... try it first before going under the knife

Answer 4

Talk to your doctor. He could help decide.
