I'm 18 years old and my right breast is larger than my left. It's been like this since i was 13, when i started developing properly. They have some sort of shape but they hang like an old womans rather than a girl of my age. I hate the way i look. I have practically no confidence in my body, i dont wear anything that shows my breast because im scared otehr people will notice. it's also affected my social life and i rarely go out with friends. i can be quite timid and shy and am realy scared of tlkign to my gp about it. Is there any advice that may help me over come all this?
when you have breast cancer can you take out the duct in the breast that is infected rather than have the nipple taken away.

I am turning 17 soon and i have always had this problem. I have one boob that is a D and one that is not. I feel comletely unfemine, i use a chicken fillet in one side so that it is not obvious to everyone. I am so concious of this and am always feeling down about it. I won't get undressed in front of anyone because im just too embarrased. It means that i push people away and can never have a good relationship with a guy. I really dont know what to do but it really depresses me. Is there anything i can do or have done ??
