Question
Breast surgery for my yr. old daughter?
Hi, I have a daughter named Julie who just turned years old. Over the past years her peditrician was concerned about her breast size and how one was much bigger than the other. Her doctor said she would probably catch up by the age of , but her recent visit to her peditirician was not a good one for her. Her left breast is an A cup and her right is a C cup. She seems very uncomfortable about her appearance, she never wears tight clothes, she doesnt swim.. I just feel horrible!! Her doctor mentioned plastic surgery, is this safe or is there risks. My mother had breast cancer so I dont know if my daughter should get it or not.
Answer
I am a nurse and I truly believe that you need to do whatever makes your daughter comfortable and what makes her love herself and her body. You know that has to be dramatizing for her to have to go through that. I would probably let her watch some videos if u can find any, of the surgery to see if she really wants to go through with it. And yes it is a risk since breast cancer runs through the family but u also have to look at the benefits outweighing the risks. Good Luck with whatever you choose.
