No better to have a lobotomy.

helpful responses please

A lot of us get fatter after the menopause. A diet perhaps?

bmi less than 25. bra size 34k. was 34f before children. same size now as when breastfeeding

Speak to your GP.

Or go ahead and have a reduction. Your tits. No one else's. [shrug]

Used to be 34B. Now I'm 36C. I know why my bust is bigger, it is in proportion to the rest of me!. It's because I have put on two stones in weight since I got married.

Ditto to that Hilda.

Perhaps divorce is the answer, then?

This thread is an example of the art of speaking the b..... obvious isn't it?

Sorry if that's rude but honestly OP!

Breast reduction surgery is far more major than that for implants. You would have to take advice and think very carefully!

That's an extreme method for losing weight!

Yes, I've gone from 36A to 36C, without gaining weight anywhere else.
34K sounds as though it would be very uncomfortable particularly if you do any kind of sport, and could put strain on your back.
I'd ask your GP for advice and possibly a referral.

Blimey I could think of a lot worse things to worry about!

Thank you jane. 34k is VERY uncomfortable indeed. The weight is causing a great deal of pain for which I now need medication to manage.

I just wanted to know if the increase is typical.

A good support bra must be essential.

No, it isn't. If it was, all post-menopausal women would have huge bosoms. Some do, most don't, but do consult your GP.

Good point ana. thanks

Oh you didn't explain in your original OP that you were experiencing pain. Yes as anasays certainly see your GP.

Thanks white wave. only know what needs to be said when thread gets going.

so yes have tried everything before reduction is a serious consideration - hence this thread

indigo I always had smallish boobs but since I've got older (and yes, put on weight) they've become decidedly more "middle-aged and musky". So much so that I have to wear a "good bra" now instead of the teenage design ones I used to get able to get away with. I don't really like it, but it doesn't cause me any problems.

On the other hand, an acquaintance had breast enhancement options at 63! She was completely flat chested all her life and said she wanted to have boobs.

If you are experiencing pain, you should see a doc. There was a previous thread about this subject, and one of the gransnetters was having a reduction. I'll see whether I can find it.

That should be "mumsy" not musky!!

And not options either, should be "breast enhancement operation". I really must preview.

Don't worry about the typos GK.
