Is this true about your breasts?!


Question: I heard rumors that if you play with them or touch them a lot they'll get bigger. Is that just a fable? Or do they just stop growing when you're a certain age? And do they grow bigger after you have a child and are breastfeeding? Curiousity got the best of me.

Touching your breasts a lot doesn't make them grow bigger.

Puberty varies from girl to girl, but generally, a girl's breasts stop growing at around 18-19. But again, some girls can stop growing at an earlier or later time than this.

During foreplay and things, being sexually aroused makes them swell a little bit, but this goes away after your sexual arousal goes away.

Your breasts may also have a little pain/tenderness during the week before your period, and increase in size a little bit, becoming a little more full. This is because of the hormones released during ovulation. Birth control can sometimes amplify this effect, but not always. (I've been on birth control for two months, and every week as I'm ovulating they grow half a cup size until my period is over.)

Taking some kinds of birth control can also increase the overall size of your breasts, but not by a significant amount, at the very most maybe a cup size. This doesn't happen with all women, though. This larger effect only lasts as long as you continue taking the birth control, though. If you come off the birth control, your breasts will return to normal size.

During the last few months of pregnancy, a woman's breasts swell because the milk-producing glands begin activating in preparation of producing milk for the baby. The milk ducts stay active until you wean your baby, and afterwards your breasts go back to normal for the most part.

thats not true

Mine are still growing (I hope :), but I don't think playing with them will make them bigger. I heard most girls develop like their own mothers.

Touching them does nothing. They stop growing at the end of puberty around 17-18 for most girls. They grow when you're pregnant because of the milk.

Urban myth, genetics and to a certain extent body fat determine breast size. And pregnancy of course

no your breasts will not get bigger by touching them

but yes, your breasts get a lot bigger when you are pregnant/breast feeding.

Hmm okay well If you touch them, they will not get any bigger. That is the biggest fable. Some women's breast still grow until they are 20. No, your breasts grow during the pregnancy thats all girl!! Sometimes they shrink after childbirth and breastfeeding. But sometimes they don't. Just depends :D
