Sorry if this isn't totally relevant- the reason for me going on the paleo diet is because i thought this might solve my issue. I went on birth control at 17, and experienced a nice little boost, my boobs got bigger. Now I'm 23 and they are smaller, possibly back to their original size- but I'm STILL on the birth control, so nothing should have changed!

I'm actually fine being this size but I'm so afraid I will keep losing breast mass until I am totally flat. I can't find anyone online who has had the same issue. Just so you know, I have NOT lost any weight (in fact I've gained) so that also doesn't make sense. I think I might be the only one who has ever experienced this. Does this sound like a hormonal disease? Could paleo help me?

 How many boob questions are you going to ask today? – MathGirl72 Nov 15 at 21:40

 A lot- trust me, if you were in my position you'd be having a nervous breakdown. Imagine a guy losing one inch off his penis every year. he'd be pretty obsessed too. – JE Nov 15 at 21:43

 Hold your nose, close your mouth, and blow out. They'll reinflate in no time. – MathGirl72 Nov 15 at 21:57

 Living hell? Oh wow. That is pretty melodramatic. Honestly, lack of confidence would be much more unattractive then having small breasts. Rock what you have! I can think of several lovely and accomplished women with small breasts and I don't see them lamenting about it. – Varelse Nov 15 at 22:34

 Guys' balls start to droop as they age. Should he be worried that you're going to leave him over that? Your boobs were artificially enlarged by the hormones in birth control. Maybe now that you're older and your growth hormones have leveled out, the ones in birth control don't have the same mammarizing effect as they used to. Hopefully your boyfriend loves you enough that he won't care. If not, then he's a jerk. – Nemesis Nov 16 at 1:37

There is a simple explanation here re: breast size increasing initially on the pill, then later returning to "normal":

And you can find more information relatively easily using Google. I don't see how a paleo diet, or any diet, will help you. And asking your question twice, as you can see, does not make you popular at paleohacks.

 Fair enough but thank you so much for providing good, factual info. I see why it would irritate people, I thought this site was so huge that nobody would even notice. – JE Nov 15 at 22:34

Truth.

I can't believe I'm actually being made fun of for having small breasts? By adults? Is this real life? Imagine your penis was getting smaller every year, how would you feel if someone told you to waltz on over to the Little Dick Company. – JE Nov 15 at 21:59

 That's a good point, though if the LDC has the research I needed...though I don't Waltz...could I Cha Cha on over...merengue perhaps? the point to all this...making MANY questions asking the same thing tends to garner this kind of responce, don't be surprised if all your questions are closed for being redundant. – TruthinessInc Nov 15 at 22:11

 No is making fun of you for having small breasts. But you are being rather hysterical about the issue and you have posted a lot of stuff about boobs today. Just ask 1 comprehensive question and have it over with. – Varelse Nov 15 at 22:36
