Does having big breasts in your family affect how estrogen will grow them?

Big boobs run in the family and I was wondering if that might mean I’ll have that too after a few years on hrt. Does family biology affect it at all or is it random?

As I understand it, supposedly your breast size would be about one cup size smaller than your closest female relative. Who's your closest? My mother had fairly substantial (not enormous) breasts. My sister, quite the opposite. Which one counts?

Neither of my sisters are adults so I can’t say for them, but it’s it’s one cup size smaller than my mom’s I should be fine. Thank you!

Sure thing. To be honest, my mom and I never got along, but I'm rooting for her to be my closest.

Haha my mom and I don’t get along either, but at least now I have something to thank her for

It may or it may not, which is more good news than bad news. It really isn't obvious.

Not in my case. I'm currently a double D, and noticed the other day. That the cups where uncomfortable. I'm sure it's time to up grade again. For a reference last year at this time I was a large b small c. 

 

I'm bigger then my dads grandma, and my mom. Moms mom is bigger, but I don't know if she's ways been big, or big because of weight gain as she got older. I asked my mom a few months ago if bigin's run in the family. She said some where bigger.

Do you want them? I honestly wish they were smaller most days. The scary thing is I'm only 18 months into hrt. I'm sure they won't be slowing down any time in the next year. I have joked with my friends. That many woman don't even get that munch growth in a life time. Not counting pregnancy. Like I did in in the last 18 months. I stopped in to my old job there other day to pick up some snacks, and my boss who hasn't seen me for two months. Made the comment they look bigger then 2 months ago. 

 

Honestly I hope they stop. I'm sick of buying new bras every 4-6 months. I can no longer sleep on my stomach, or my side. As they sufacte me when I sleep on my side. They are always in the way. Especially wearing a bra. They hurt when I bit a bump, or run up the stairs. I'm also bigger then all the woman in my inner circle. The amount of jealousy i get is crazy.

My family is very mixed there too. My mother was a small B cup at best but some of my aunts are full on D and personally i'd rather be closer to my aunts. For all the discomfort a large chest can cause that's how i feel. Luckily for me i've never been able to sleep on my stomach to begin with. If i don't lie on my side i can't fall asleep so that would not/will not be a problem.

Sorry you have that problem. I could take a portion of it if I could

I hope for big breasts but I sleep on my stomach every night. I guess I should find a new way to sleep. Shouldn’t be too bad, just a few sleepless nights before I get used to it. At least I won’t have to give up my fans as white noise or else I’d die of sleep deprivation. I’m very particular in the way I sleep if you can’t tell.

OK, sure but EVERYBODY knows that ONE girl who, in middle-school, came back from summer-vacation with a pair that she was going to regret.

 

Breast development is super individual. I've got small B-cups which I'm pretty OK with. They're probably still growing (because soreness, ow), but I was a late bloomer with puberty 1.0. There's no reason to expect I wouldn't be a late bloomer the second time around as well.

 

Hugs!

I was a late bloomer in some parts. I didn't grow any body hair till I was about 21, and while I started shaving around 16. I was just finally able to grow a good beard when I started my transition. My breast have been sore since about 4 months in. I have noticed they get really sore about every 5-6 months for about a month. Then blow up over night it seems. I haven't worn the same size bra for more then 6 months.  

 

As for the sleeping part. Its just trying to get use to a new way to sleep. I have a fan. Because my room is so hot. Because its on the south side of the house..
