The most common cause of breast size is familial factors. In addition, breast enlargement is observed due to weight gain, hormonal disorders, pregnancy, breastfeeding and various breast diseases.

Is breast size an aesthetic problem?
Breast size is a health problem rather than an aesthetic problem. Large breasts put a considerable strain on the neck and back. As a result, patients develop treatment-resistant shoulder and back pain, flattening and deformity in the neck vertebrae. Most patients suffer from shoulder and back pain for years, take physical therapy and have to use a lot of drugs.

When people with large breasts use a bra, collapses and deformities occur on the shoulders, especially where the bra strap passes.

These people have rashes, fungal infections and bad odors that cause serious discomfort, especially in summer, under the breasts and between the nipples.

The size of the breasts causes serious problems in the social life of people, especially in adolescence and young girls.

Women with large breasts have difficulty in finding suitable clothes, have limited arm movements, and even have respiratory distress while lying on their backs and say that they feel as if they are suffocating.
