Title: Breast Size
Post by: nicksy23 on January 10, 2011, 07:20:39 PM
Greeting ladies,

Sorry for reposting the topic tittle. I've been searching all over the forum to answer my question, but it seems I cant find the exact one, I hope you dont mind the repost. Here it is.

I'm 7 months on ethinyl estradiol + levonorgestrel (pill) and almost a month on spironolactone (aldactone) . Breast enlargement is now noticeable. Nipple growth as well. But the thing is, why is it that my right boobs is almost 250% bigger than my left?? Left boobs is noticeably developing, but in a real slow way. Is that normal?? I dont know what my breast size exactly, but you can some how base on my avatar. Note: Im wearing a push up bra. Did anyone experienced the same?

As far as I know that's normal. I don't think any girls, genetics included, have natural breasts that are identical in size. I wouldn't really freak out until ones a D and the others an A lol.

Its very normal to have one breast larger then the other. I have been on hormons for a year and there was a very long time that my right was bigger then my left.  They will even out in time and the pain will go down.

I've been on hormones for almost 2yrs. The one is bigger than the other. Currently a 38C and heading to a 38D. :) It is about the only thing I got going for me. I know they are growing still because they still f***ing hurt.

My wife a genetic girl has different size boobs, not dramatically different, but it was more apparent when she was breast feeding our little ones.

It is normal for them to be a little different in size, but like Britney♥Bieber said one shouldn't be a A and the other a D.

exactly the same here!

But if your wearing a bra no one but yourself will notice.

There's a real nice web site called normal woman's breasts or something like that. Its more or less for a woman's self esteem type site, I thought it was a very nice site. KUDOS's

Its a nice site that shows a variety of shapes and sizes. You would be surprised at how commen uneven breasts are.

I seen at least 3 woman that are identical to me. I am also insecure about how spread apart mine are, well there were plenty others that were farther apart them mine!.

Jenny, that's so cool. I'll sure loved your breast size if I could have them. Im in a low dose medication. It would take me 10 years to achieve those sizes. Lolz.

What is the site address hon?

Have you tried doing a breast massage on the smaller breast? No, that is not a sexual thing...

Doing a breast massage causes the blood flow to go to your breast thus activating the receptors

My breast have grown fairly evenly due to this massage and I've been able to even mine out when they have become lopsided by massaging the smaller breast a bit more

Breast Pain.

Does breast pain means breast is growing? Does it mean that without pain, it wont grow? I rarely feel any pain, not if i touch my boobs. I dont feel any pain unless im going to urge it. It hurts during touch or massage.

I do massage, but i really dont know if Im doing it the right way. Lolz. .is the small one is the one i should massage?or the both??, and whats the proper way of breast massage? .whats your breast size now?

I can't add anything specific for HRT as I have not gone through it.

However, it is perfectly normal for your body to be unsymmetrical. Nothing on your body is perfectly symmetrical, and if it were, it would actually look fake. Growing is no different, and I would suspect this to be what is happening. They will become more similar to one another with time I am sure.

As others have said, just keep doing massages and check for anything abnormal now and then.

Oh, thanks for that. I guess I can ask Mr. Google about the massage stuff.

If one is smaller than the other, concentrate your massage on it more... i.e. If it is half as large as the other, massage it twice as much... If they are really lopsided just massage the smaller one until it starts to catch up to other

Put some lotion on the breast... Place left hand-left breast, right hand-right breast... Fingers should be spread and look kinda like a starfish... Thumbs pointing up, middle fingers nearly touch tips

Massage in a circular motion... Right side clockwise, Left side counterclockwise... Make at least 100 circles with each massage

Something that surprised me is that this also helps with the pain

Thank you for the information. That's a very great help. Anyway, i dont get it clearly. Do you mean it like shaking my boobs clockwise and counter clockwise on the other? How often should i do it a day? Atleast 3x 100 circles?

Most womens breasts are asymmetrical, at least all of the ones I've ever seen have differed a little. My ex (GG) had one that was barely an A and one that was a full B, quite a bit of difference. Personally I've had some breast growth since I hit puberty, right now have B's, but they're both on the far ends of the B scale, with my left breast being larger and a more formed? shape.

Well every thing my doctor has told me is that even though I am no longer in pain my breasts can still be growing and that they will grow for like the first 2 years the most and then be just about done after 5.    My breast size is 36B and all I have ever done is hormones.  I have no idea about that breast massage stuff but it sounds like it works.

No, your not shaking them  :laugh:  Think more like if you have a sore muscle... You want to apply smooth, steady pressure (but not too hard)... It should feel like a nice deep therapeutic massage

FROM MR. Google

FOUR STEPS OF BREAST MASSAGE.

Apply breast cream first.

Step One: Use your fingers to gently smooth away from the nipple. These movements travel from the nipple and directly away using no more pressure than
what you would apply to your eyelid. Any more
pressure would flatten the lymphatic vessel and stop the flow of toxins and fluids. Also, make this stroke slow, not fast, for it to be effective.

Step Two: Gently massage the breast with a kneading-like motion, using lifting and pressing movements.

Step Three: Slowly and carefully use your hands to twist the breast in a clock-wise and anticlockwise direction, being careful not to put too much tension on
the breast.

Step Four: Use both hands as shown to apply several,
moderate pressure, compressions to move out more pressure fluids.

It is extremely common for RIGHT-handed women to have a larger LEFT breast. Some theories:

So, I should learn how to become ambidextrous before my breasts start growing much?
