What Causes One Breast To Be Larger During Breast Feeding?
I am 28 yrs old and very thin. My weight is 37kg and height 5'1'. My problem is that my both breasts are not of the same size. This problem occurs after breast feeding. Its been 1 year after delivery. My left breast is bigger than the right one. I mostly feed my baby from left from the start. What should i do so that my both breasts are of the same size? Please suggest.

Hi...probably this has happened as you have fed your baby mostly from the left breast. As it is used more, the tissues which are responsible for milk production might have over grown. As such there is not medical solution for this. I suggest you see a plastic surgeon if you are really concerned.
If you are happy with my suggestion, kindly rate and thank. I wish you good health.
