PUBERTY DIDNT WORK. - August 27th 2010, 02:47 PM

Ok. So im 19 right now (going on 20 in about 3 weeks)

So when I was 13 I had the smallest boobs in class. basically. FLAT CHESTED.
then, 14, 15, 16 , 17, 18.....still small.

small
small
small.

What did my mother say when I was 12 years old, crying because I had no boobs? "They will grow, by the time you are 20 you will have gazombas"

Sooooo, now im 19. and......they are....the same.




So I bought this cream to put on me for my boobs to grow...they grew a little bit, about a cup size.....but thats about it.

Should I just get a boob job.


For all those who will reply saying *people will love u even if u dont have boobs, guys will like u even with flat chest, you will accept it*

well 1- im not just doing this for guys...lol I actually want boobs because I want to feel more womanly and I LIKE boobs LOL.
2- I know I wont be shunned from society for being boobless...but . im just unhappy being boobless. I just want boobs.



boobs.

I wish I had small boobs, so in my eyes, you're lucky. Boob jobs are really expensive, really painful, and IMO, frequently look really trashy.

But it's your body. It's up to you.

Even at 19, your breasts may not be fully developed. Wait until you have a family, at the very least. Your breasts will grow during pregnancy; possibly more than you want them to.
Also, consider this: I have big boobs, and I think they're a pain. They get in the way of EVERYTHING. I'll be eating spaghetti and somehow my boob will put itself right into the red sauce (usually when I have a light colored shirt on). They're -not- all they cracked up to be.
There are some less expensive options, such as wearing certain shirts to compliment them and make them appear bigger.

You shouldn't get a boob job. Boob jobs wind up looking fake and they are painful and expensive.
You still have a couple of years for your boobs to grow. Boobs can grow until a woman is about 23.

Also, birth control can make your boobs grow bigger.

Small boobs aren't a bad thing. You can still feel womanly with small boobs. You can also try different clothing styles to make them look bigger as well.

Here's my personal opinion from a woman who's had a breast augmentation.
If it's for you, if it's you feeling uncomfortable with yourself, and if you have really thought it through, then yes, go ahead and book a consultation. However, keep in mind that breast implants don't last forever. Some people have really bad luck and need replacements after not even a year, that's another breast augmentation at full price. I had mine done in February 2009, it cost me $7,100 here in BC. I was naturally a D cup, then after having my kids, a big A cup. Now, after getting 400cc's in my right and 420cc's in my left, I'm an H cup, a bit bigger than I hoped for, but I'm happy with it. And if you do decide to go through with it, get a little bigger than you want. The implants show a cup under what you actually are. I'm an H, my bra's are, but my bobs look smaller. Make sure you do your research first!

Know what might help you? Birth control. If you a "stronger" one, like the patch. It might make your boobs bigger. I don't know if you've on one right now but there is more than one use for birth control and fixes more than one thing at once. I'm almost sure It will help you.

I agree with what everyone else has said. I would wait a few more years. If you decide to have the surgery I would say not to go over a cup bigger, just because they do end up looking so fake, and big boobs are a pain.

its not that puberty didn't work, you just might be small chested. I know lots of girls out there that have incredibly small chests, even celeb's out there have A cups and they live with it. Look at Kiera Knightly, she's flat as a board. If you don't like your image and feel like a boob job would make you feel more confident then by all means go for it but make sure you research what you're getting into before you go under the knife.

You've still not finished growing at 19/20. Possibly another 2 years yet, might hit a little growth spirt! I'm 19 also, and I'm just a a measly A cup. But they are a perfect handful!

I would definitely opt out for a boob job, at least for now until you're 100% sure about it, and you know that you won't grow anymore. You need to make sure that you have the right reasons for getting a boob job, and you know all the implications and consequences.

I'm fairly happy with my little titties. If boob jobs were magically done and easy peasy, I'd get one too. But I don't think I'd go that much bigger anyway. You can always be womanly with small boobies as well as big ones!!

Omg my boobs didnt' grow forever either!
Then BAM at almost 18 I finally got boobage!
So i'd say wait it out a bit more.
I can understand wanting to feel more feminish. But there are other options besides a boob job.
Just get a bigger padded bra?
Either way, flast chests suit some people. Just saying =P


I'll do whatever it takes to be the mistake you can't live without.

I just want to also point out that just because you seem to be small chested at the moment, that's not necessarily a bad thing. You just got to work with nature provides for you. Invest in a nice pushup or padded bra to help flaunt what you've got. Wear the right kind of clothing. Also don't underestimate what you can do by working out the right areas. Try some pushups or benchpresses and you can build muscle and firm up what you've got. Also, good posture makes your boobs look better.

These are just a few tips. But I'm sure you can find more online if you search. You don't need a boob job to make your boobs look good.

Well by all means if your unhappy with small boobs, then yes go get a boob job, but make sure its what you really want first. They are fairly cheap now a days. Just make sure you look around and ask around to find the best boob job ppl in your area, might as well go to the best ppl if your gonna do it.

Aww not fair, I'm on the pill and mine haven't gotten bigger. Some days I actually wonder if they've gotten smaller.

Anywayyss.. Yes I'd suggest waiting a couple years.
Do lots and lots of research.
Don't get them too big, then they could look super fake and get in the way.
Google the downsides of having big boobs, I've heard there's a bunch (ex. back pain)

If your that unhappy with your cup size perhaps you are a candidate for breast implants. I don't see anything wrong with it other then the fact that it may cost you some money.

You could wait a little while, maybe a couple of years. I can't imagine what would have to be done if you got a boob job now and then your breasts began to grow...the job might have to be undone due to aesthetic reasons (ex. breast growth pushes implants into odd positions).

If bigger boobs would make you happy than I can't tell you what to do really but you don't have to get a boob job to make them bigger. You can buy exta padded bras and water bras

Re: PUBERTY DIDNT WORK. - September 3rd 2010, 02:57 PM

Oh god, Im exactly the same - what is this cream and where do I get it?? Haha, Id settle for any growth at all.
It's horrible, considering my sister is 3 or 4 cup sizes bigger - how the heck did that happen??
Anyway, I am saving for implants myself, but I doubt I will get them because I'm so protective of my body. There's something called breast hyperplasia or something where they haven't developed like they should - I would love to find out thats the problem and it's totally fixable, lol, but I haven't seen anyone about it because I'm scared the answer will be no.
I hate it so much, my depressive moods are actually 90% triggered by my flat-chestedness. And my best friend who I live with is a D, so it's incredibly hard these days.
I'm with you, I just want boobs to feel womanly, and to fill clothes better!

I'm a DD and I hate it.
My bf doesn't like them, they give me bad posture because of gravity and they get in the way.
You'll probably gain them sometime in your future or you could also ask about hormone therapy as an alternative to surgery.
I say, love your boobs, they're yours and no matter what they look like, they're unique and beautiful.
Even though I hate my boobs most of the time, I love them because they're mine.

Hi
I'm 22 and I dont have much breasts to speak of either! My sister on the other hand is the complete opposite!

I would think carefully about the boob job thing, it can be painful and go wrong, expensive too, I would imagine, but its up to you though.

I used to hate my small breasts but I've grown to like them I think, I wear padded bras and pretty underwear to my full advantage-it makes me feel more confident about my size.

Re: PUBERTY DIDNT WORK. - September 7th 2010, 04:29 PM

Through the whole of my teens I was desperate for a nose job, I couldn't even look at photos of myself because i was so disgusted by the way my nose looked. The more i researched the operation though, the more I thought about what would happen if it went wrong. and they do go wrong - even with the best, most expensive plastic surgeons in the world they can go wrong. Just think about all the celebrities who've paid unbelievable amounts of money to get work done and its been a total failure. the thought of the surgery going wrong - however small that chance may be - made me look at myself in a whole new light. Over time I gradually began to learn to accept my nose and be happy with it. I can look at photos of myself now and see an attractive woman.

I understand what you mean about how you want boobs because you like boobs. When i was most obsessive about having my nose done I couldn't think of anything prettier or more feminine than a small, straight nose and when i met someone the first thing i noticed about them was their nose. I still find myself doing this from time to time but it doesn't affect me as badly as it used to.

Whatever you decide to do it is your body and so only your choice to make, but 2 points to consider are:

1) Everyone has at least one thing they hate about their body, but it is still your body; you've worn it everyday of your life and it reflects where you've come from so it makes sense to claim some ownership of it and be proud.
2) Right now your breasts are perfectly healthy, they look good and have been made in proportion with the rest of your body, if something went wrong, you could be left with scars, puckering, uneveness, weeping and oozing, to name a few. this is a major operation and should be treated as such.
