subject: The Two Most Common Methods Of Breast Reduction: Pills and Surgery [print this page] Author: Rowland Berrie
Most people in America believe all women want larger, firmer breasts. That is a misconception. Some women feel their frame is unbalanced proportion-wise (making shopping a nightmare because nothing fits), and they want to reduce the size of their breasts. Some women dont like the negative attention their large breasts bring. Large breasts can also create health problems, such as chronic neck and back pain, and make it difficult to participate in sports or athletic activities. Large breasts can also create a problem aesthetically, such as when a woman ages or after a pregnancy. Eventually large breasts droop and sag, which can devastate a womans overall self-confidence in her appearance. So, while many women want bigger breasts, there are some women who wish they had smaller breasts. Breast reduction pills claim they can reduce a womans breast size with natural extracts and herbal ingredients.Taking pills is much easier than undergoing surgery, so many women lean towards that choice. If you want to try the pills, do your homework first. The internet is a great resource. Check to see if the product has any testimonials, maybe even before-and-after pictures. Remember though, you have no way of knowing if these claims are true. One question you should ask is: Does a doctor endorse the product? If so, check out his credentials. If he is a podiatrist, dont give credence to his endorsement. If the doctor is a plastic surgeon, find out if he specializes in breast reduction. And dont forget to read the product disclaimer. Thats where you might find something about the effectiveness or safety of the pill that makes you think twice about taking it. If you decide to try the pills, check first with your family doctor. He can advise you of any risks involved, such as potential conflicts with medications you already take. Surgery is the alternative to reduce breast size. It is instant and it is permanent. There is no need to wait for months or years to see if it works. You will need to recover from the surgery, of course, which will take at least several months and require time off from work. Women who have had the procedure, however, feel its well worth it. There are some risks involved with breast reduction surgery, including a loss of sensation on parts of the breast and the inability to breast feed. If you are considering breastfeeding children, do not opt for breast reduction surgery. One of the most obvious differences between breast reduction pills and surgery is the cost. You would have to take a lot of pills for a lot of years to equal the surgery cost of five thousand dollars or more. But do breast reduction pills work? Are you willing to risk spending the time and money on something that may never produce results? Of course, if you try them and they dont work, you can then consider surgery. The internet is a superb tool for gathering information on any subject but when it comes to your health, rely only on the information you obtain from a licensed physician. For a surgery such as breast reduction, put your trust in a board-certified plastic surgeon particularly one who specializes in breast reduction. Most do not charge for the initial consultation. It is not this articles intention to provide medical advice. Heed medical advice only from a licensed physician.About the Author:
