Should I have a breast augmentation?

No one can really answer that question for you. I had one and I couldn't be happier with my decision, but I am not you.  The reasons I had for getting one may not be the same as why you are considering it.  The fears and concerns I had were probably not the same as yours.  YOUR feelings on the matter are what count the most.\n\nIf you really want to get one, don't let other people talk you out of by telling you it's vain, or indecent, or foolish, or unhealthy, or whatever else they may have to say about it.  They don't live in your body, they don't wear your clothes, they don't feel your feelings, they don't look at you every day in the mirror, they don't have a right to make this decision for you.\n\nIf you do it for the wrong reasons you might be terribly unhappy with your decison afterwards, so be sure you don't think that having a nicer chest will take care of all of life's problems, because it won't.  \n\nDon't assume that an augmentation will give you perfect breasts, because it won't do that either.\n\nI won't try to convince you that you should have it done...but the decison was right for me and 1000's of other women.  It has also been the wrong decision for 1000's of women.  \n\nThe choice must be yours.

Not for awhile.... be careful, I ended up having 3 breast surgeries due to complications.... I was lifting box's and 1 popped, another shifted under my arm , and another got a hole in it... it was an awful experience so just be careful...

You are born with the breast you should have. There is no need to enhance anything on your body. Be happy and confident in your own skin. That is sexier than anything.

At some level its difficult to answer the question. Does chest size matter to whom? Well, it doesn't to your boyfriend, and that's good. Frankly, he sounds like a really great person, and is able to see that there is a lot more to you than your breasts.\n\nI personally don't think that you should get implants to feel better about yourself. I would say that people should get any type of cosmetic surgery only after they already feel good about themselves. Because often after the surgery it doesn't change doubts that you have about yourself. At any rate, wait a few years first before you do it.\n\nAnd, really, your boyfriend is not "missing out" on anything! He's got you, and you have him, and that is what is important. \n\nListen to your boyfriend. Smart guy.

You have surgery and put some silicon in your breast. This will increase the size of your bust and fill out your shirt more. LOL Speaking of the wwe. China once had one of her implants bust while she was on tour with them. While she was wrestling.

Well, over the years they have improved breast implants, and have made them safer but it is still very risky.One of my aunts got breast implants a few years ago and after the wounds healed she went to the lake and her left breast implant moved and damn near went under her armpit, it started leaking and she almost died.I don't understand why people feel they need to go under the knife and put objects into their bodies to enhance their physical appearance.I think people need to focus more on their personality then their appearance because looks fade away,personality can grow and grow. Please don't get breast implants, it is going to hurt, its going to cost an arm and a leg, and even though its not as common as a heart attach, it could also cost you your life.I am sure you are beautiful just the way you are,why would you want to put something man made into your body anyway? nothing man made lasts forever. :) GOOD LUCK.

just be happy with yourself the way you are.  why would you want larger breasts? think about it long and hard and if it truely is for yourself and not to get/please a man/woman, get surgery.  it is safer and permamnent.  creams for breast enhancement, hair growth, weight loss etc etc are genrally poor products that don't really work but cost alot.

Studies show that they are not dangerous persay, but there are many complications that can occur.  Infection, fibrosis, etc. or you may not be happy with the results.  If you are going to get implants, make sure you find someone who has done a good job on friends.  In the long run, you'll most likely need another surgery as the implants may need to be altered due to sagging or you may get capsule of fibrosis that may need to be removed.  I know many women who've had implants that have eventually had them removed or replaced within several years.

Yes.  Consider several factors:\n\nHow badly do you need the breast reconstruction? entirely up to you, your self, and your situation.\n\nWhat caused the breast cancer?  Lifestyle?  Exposure to something in the environment?  Genetic?\n\nIf you really, really need the reconstruction to live a normal life, then get it.  It may shorten your life, but it will be a shorter, normal life.  It may also never pose a problem.\n\nIf you don't need it but would like it, consider the odds of your breast cancer recurring.  Can you change your lifestyle?  Your environment?  Or is it genetic?  Do you have a lot of cancer (particularly breast) in your family?   Your doctor may, through biopsies, be able to tell you a little bit more about your genetic predisposition.\n\nIf you think you have a high genetic predisposition, only get the construction if absolutely essential.\n\n\nWhether you do or you don't....We do NOT do enough follow-up for breast cancer in the US/Canada.  It is, in my opinion, worth the extra money for more frequent checkups.  Early diagnosis means everything, and can be the difference between a very minor surgery and years of tragic battles.

I say, embrace your small chest! Most smaller chests stay firmer and perkier for longer. Unless they are uneven or mis shapped don't go for implants. We need to rise up and show the world that its not the size of chest that makes you beautiful, damnit!! It's the kind of person you are!\nI do have a tip for improving the appearence though, work out your pectoral muscles, just helps add a little lift.

Dear Womble,\n\nYou really should ask women how comfortable their breast implants are.\n\nYou will probably hear a lot of answers that would make anybody have second thoughts about implanting silicone anywhere.

Please, before you even think about getting this done, learn to spell "BOOB". Otherwise, you won't have any idea of what they may decide to operate on and enlarge.\n\nk.m.

for the last time NO!  this question gets asked daily... nothing will make your breast bigger permantly accept implants or padded bras... get over it people they are the size they are.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), there were nearly 255,000 breast enhancement implant surgeries in 2003, nearly twice the number done in 1998. Another 68,000 women received breast implants for reconstruction following mastectomy due to cancer or other disease.\n\nhttp://www.fda.gov/fdac/features/2004/504_implants.html

I know nothing of the breast milk issue, as mine were done well after that stage. I have read that it is not a sure thing that implants would cause complications, my recollection isn't too clear, but it seems that was a small percentage. You know how people have to include disclaimers to cover EVERY aspect. The only negative side I know of is...not many doctors/hospitals are set up to do mamograms on implants, but I hear it's up and coming. You will be sore, if you scar easily you will have a nasty scar...don't get it done through the nipple. I had mine done through the belly button....read up on that for more details...and my bf is impressed at how good mine look with no scars on my breasts. I had mine done in Dallas, so no help on your geographical situation.
