"I am a 20 year old girl with a big problem--make that 2 big problms. I am 5'1", 110 pounds--and my breast size is 32 DD. I've been a DD since I was 16 years old. Having large breasts effects every aspect of my life, I dread going up and down stairs, running, etc.

And if I do decide to wait, are there any options to help with the symptoms of having large breasts??
Thank you!"
