I understand there will be women with various sized breasts who may come across this blog and wonder if their own breasts are in fact normal. This is what I have found.
It's normal for woman to have a cup to a cup and a half size difference in breast. About 67% of women according to the NHS have this difference. Most men do not notice this difference. It is also normal to be uneven in puberty which is why plastic surgeons like to wait until you are 18. even then you may find you still grow up to 21. This is good news! Take heart!
For those who are two sizes , this is the "grey area". While this is alos considered by some to be normal, the difference is usually enough to start causing problems. It's more noticable and can have a big effect. Please don't stay slient if this is the case. Go to your GP.
Whether your primary care trust funds it or not, if you are looking into surgery on the NHS I warn you it appears they tend to only go for cases where the size difference is 2 cups or more. That's the theory anyway! I would like to point out that in my case, the size difference is at least 3 cup sizes. This has been confirmed by a GP and a nurse. Lucky me.
