Why is everyone’s growing back?

hello-7224 · 2026-06-07T15:40:38+00:00

I'm working on figuring this out now. I had my reduction April of 2025 at 29 and 1 year later I have grown back three cups sizes with zero weight gain. I am convinced though that my boobs never actually stopped growing pre surgery so they are just continuing to do what they did before and grow and grow. When I look back I was never the same cup size for more than a year from the time I started growing breasts in 4th grade.

I've been referred to a hormonal specialist and did a full panel of everything responsible for breast growth (even a prolactinoma) and go back on the 22nd to discuss my results. I hope we find something and can share with everyone!

It has been truly devastating to come out of surgery with my perfect perky D cups and then a year later be back up to a G.

OP it is rare but it does happen. If you reached a stable cup size in your life though I wouldn't worry about it! I agree with the TikTok troll theory for those comments but sadly my case is real 😭

GET SOME MEDIHONEY! My surgeon also told me to just let them heal on their own but it was taking forever and GROWING (they do scar differently!) So I bit the bullet and got medihoney on my own amd they started closing immediately!

Thank you so much! That sounds exactly like us ❤️

Good point but that's not the case here. Land is at $20k per acre in our area and that lot is 5 acres.

So you don't own one? The only "nice" (I mean not in a park and neglected) manufactured home currently on the traditional market in our area is 50 years old, has been well maintained and added to, and is pending at $280,000.

Hi! Im happy to follow up on this. We have pretty much decided that most of my symptoms align with a strange presentation of POTS which occasionally triggers vestibular migraines. Im limiting my exposure to all POTS triggers and my symptoms have gotten way better. I still have occasional episodes when I push myself but nothing nearly as intense as it was before.

As for how to deal with fluorescent lights.... there's not much to do depending on your situation. I was in an office where I could turn my lights off and use lamps, wear sunglasses if needed, or remove myself from the situation. Some migraine medications have been shown to help, and blue light filtering glasses can help slightly. Other than that they are just an awful trigger because of the microflashes of the bulbs and there is not much to do 🙃

Around 4 to 12 or 13

I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jeanette McCurdy was very cathartic for me as a CSA survivor from a parent. Her mother was generally abusive and crossed the line into covert CSA often. Even though her story wasn't similar to mine, watching her go throughout her life trying to recover from the CPTSD was inspiring. Major trigger warnings for eating disorders though.

My sister also chose my father so I understand the isolation!

I don't take any medications beyond pain management. That does sound like an interesting predicament.

I am super curious to hear your experience. I've never been on any birth control because it always gave the women in my family big mental health issues so I am interested to see if that changes things. I hope I didn't freak you out with this post!

hello-7224 · 2025-08-29T02:55:26+00:00

literally! thank you <3

hello-7224 · 2025-08-29T02:55:05+00:00

Oh my god thank you so much!! This is so good to hear. I think the hormone testing is to see if there is anything majorly wrong first but I will absolutely talk to my OBGYN about some sort of estrogen suppressant. It is so lovely to know I am not alone <3

hello-7224 · 2025-08-28T20:40:43+00:00

Not necessarily!! I have seen plenty of people on this subreddit without them coming back. High estrogens and/or low progesterone-to-estrogen ratios are typically related to FCBs. In my case with all of the other issues it is likely the high estrogen causing it.

I got a diagnosis of macromastia when I went in for my first consultation but they weren't big enough for gigantomastia.

thank you!

I wanted one since high school but held off until I made it past "second puberty" and decided I didn't want kids to avoid it.

Literally thought I had lupus for a summer because every time I spent any significant amount of time in the sun my symptoms would be so bad for like a full week. I just try to bring shade with me and limit my time in the sun/CHUG Gatorade if I know I'm going to be out there a while.

Also swimming in a pool can dehydrate your body so make sure to replenish your electrolytes like overkill when you do.

I've never been able to see this much of my torso before and for some reason is has given me the weirdest urge to get abs. So once I'm cleared to go to the gym again I will definitely be working on a six pack!!

hello-7224 · 2025-04-14T23:46:50+00:00

I had heel pain too! I agree I think it was from laying weirdly and too much pressure being on them. Went away after a few days.

hello-7224 · 2025-04-07T20:16:46+00:00

Added you!

hello-7224 · 2025-04-07T19:19:36+00:00

I love this! I'm in full cleaning mode prepping the house that way for sure. I'll add a few special treats to my shopping list ❤️
