    No, there is no way to reduce them except surgery. A properly fitted bra can be a big help.

    You "need" to be flat chested? Flat chested is not going to happen.

    This is posted under weight - are you overweight?

    There's no way to keep them from growing. You just have to imbrace it because it's a part of u :)

    I'm sorry dear, but this is part of growing up. You will have to learn to deal with it. Having your breasts develop does not preclude being a tomboy. Being a tomboy doesn't mean that you look like a boy, just that you act like one and participate in activities generally felt to be more for boys.

    And I moved this from weight loss since there is no way that weight control can prevent development.

    There is no way to stop it.

    However when I was a tom boy I had some tricks.
    Put on a sports bra and then an ace bandage around it. Then wear an extra large shirt

    Dangerous advice! Being a tomboy is a state of mind not a state of body.

    Sorry, Jennie, I actually meant to disagree with this advice.

    All I can say is, be careful what you wish for! I developed very early on, at around 10 years old.

    I used to be so embarrassed when we had swim lessons in school and the boys and girls would stare, I hoped and prayed they would stop growing and they did, now I'm 24 I hope and pray they will grow! Lol

    I didn't realise it was dangerous. It didn't stunt me in anyway, quite the opposite as I had breast reduction from FFs down to DDs lol. Unless the danger is something else?

    I love you too much to hit that disagree for a reddie, but I have deleted and warned new members some months ago about the ace bandage idea as being dangerous for the persons health

    My mistake chuck, I didn't see those posts :( I used to do that and I didn't know it could cause problems. Could someone PM me (or post here for others) about why its dangerous? So I know?

    Oops. I didn't read far enough before clicking agree for jennie...

    I agree with the sports bra part of it. There's somedays that a regular bra just doesn't provide the support or comfort I need. And there is a very visible different when I wear a sports bra instead of any other bra.

    It's dangerous because it cuts off circulation.
