This is not a trivial problem and should receive the same attention as any other medical problem.īasically, there are two kinds of explanation for your problem – the first is a genetic disorder (even though there is no similar problem in other female family members), and the second is a hormonal problem around puberty. I have wondered, given the smallness of my breasts, whether a deficiency during puberty, might have occurred. I compare my breast development to a small person who has a growth hormone deficiency and is short, but I know that the seriousness of mine compared to them is inconsequential.Ĭould a specific type of doctor be able to help me? I have not asked my GP that question, as I was too embarrassed? I am not fixated on having much larger breasts but actually having breasts would be nice compared to nubs. My question is whether during puberty my body did not produce or release enough of the hormones needed for breasts to grow and that would explain the appearance and size of my breasts which resemble very beginning female puberty or early adolescent breast development?Ĭan a test be done to determine this and is there any ethical medical treatment to increase breast size? Someday I may choose breast enlargement but that is costly and I am not sure I want a cosmetic answer. No other immediate or extended female family member has very small breasts.

My mother has small breasts but they are large in comparison to mine. I can't say that I know anyone else my age or near my age that has breasts as small as mine. However, I am in good mental and physical health except for the size of my breasts, which are not just small but underdeveloped.

I am extremely self-conscious and certainly that effects my self-esteem and subsequent social life. My bra size is 34A, but I don't begin to fill it out. I barely have any breast development beyond what I call nubs. I am a tall, thin female in my mid-20s, but have the breast size of a young adolescent.
