Dr Girl/Dr Dejour Q&A
Dear Dr Dejour,
I am almost 17 years old and I am not even an A cup yet. I started my period when I was 12, what's wrong with me? My sisters, mother and grandmother are not flat, why am I? And when will I grow?
Signed,
Concerned
Dear Miss Concerned,
Are you underweight? Are you very short (5 ft or under when rest of family is not)? Do you have infrequent periods? If the answer to all is no, then I think you are probably destined to be a small breasted woman. Usually your breasts have reached their final size by two years after your first period, barring changes associated with weight fluctuation, ageing and pregnancy. There is in this case nothing 'wrong with you'. I'm sure you are delightful and gorgeous the way you are.If answer to any is yes then you should see your doctor.
Regards,
Dr Dejour
