I am a 25-year-old woman with 40G breasts, and I've been experiencing considerable back, chest, and neck pain in recent months. My shoulders have indents, and I can't lie on my stomach without chest discomfort. Additionally, removing my bra has become an ordeal due to the ensuing chest pain. Finding bras in my size has also been a tremendous struggle. Moreover, I have a heart condition, and I'm concerned that the weight of my breasts is impacting my heart health.
Yes, you are a candidate for breast reduction surgery. Improving your quality of life is a valid indication for the surgery. Before proceeding, you will be assessed for any possible contraindications.
Breast reduction surgery may qualify for insurance coverage when it is performed to alleviate neck, back, or shoulder pain, or other issues related to the spine. However, insurance standards have become stricter, so it is important to ensure that these problems are thoroughly documented in writing by both your primary care physician and plastic surgeon.
