possibly unrelated. but can the girls help me out. i’m 15 and i’m having a full panic and breakdown over how my boobs haven’t grown since i started puberty 4 years ago. i don’t even fit an AA cup and my family think it’s funny. i don’t want to be small

Lots of people don't even want large breasts and it was so much easier wearing shirts without them . So many men and women prefer them small too despite what the media tells you. You're beautiful and young and things will change as you get older. Don't focus on becoming sexualized right now just focus on school, clubs and friends dude that's what I wish I did.

I feel you because I’m in a similar place (except I’m 16). Just try not to worry about things that you can’t control. And do your best to ignore the people who don’t accept your body / laugh at it.

Take in to consideration your weight, with weight gain comes boobs, but also stretch marks so be careful, make sure your diet incorprates alot meats and cheeses, don't smoke cigarettes or weed because it stunts your growth for awhile and most definitely stunts weight gain.

Trust me, no boobs or huge boobs...all boobs are great and you will become more comfortable with your body as the years go by! I didnt really get to a C cup until I was 20! Now im 26 and i wish I had AA so I could get away with wearing certain things and not having to worry about bras etc.

It sucks they think it's funny, there's nothing wrong with that cup- all boobs are beautiful! I was the same way, I grew another cup when I was 16. But that being said, it's possible that you might stay at that size, or likely stay around an A cup. I know it's not what you want, but I think it's a good idea to maybe gain some confidence or at least acceptance that this is your body. Much like ERP, I think the first thing you can do is get used to the distress. Hope this helps- a B-cup girl

Mine didn't grow till 21/22. I was a double A all my teen years and about a 32 a at 18. Now I'm a large b/mid c lol

Tell you family it's absolutely not funny to body shame you and that you are/really/ struggling with your self esteem. They should f off.

I was about 11/12 when mine starting growing and it got made a big deal out of and made me self conscious about it. Then they kept growing and wouldn't stop. I cried every time I went up a size. I ended up with scoliosis so the large chest didn't help. Then I went on the pill at 19 (it made me depressed and gain weight which added to my chest) I swapped pills when I was about 21 with my doctor's guidance and then my boobs grew another size. I stopped the pill cos of the bad side affects. Recently, I lost the weight gain and they went down a little but the damage is done. Stretch marks like crazy, expensive bras that aren't pretty, no lift cos they're heavy, clothes not fitting right (smaller waist, larger chest). My point is it took me a long time to accept my big chest and I would love to be able to go braless some days or "lighten the load" for my scoliosis. But without surgery (which isn't an option for me) it can't be done. You may not want big boobs necessarily, but it's good to appreciate what you have cos there's up sides as well as down sides. Down sides: body image. Up sides: pretty bras, affordable bras, less back pain, braless days 🙂 and you never know, you may have a growth spurt towards the end, or even in your early to mid 20s - women's bodies still adapt, hips get wider ready for babies (of course that's your choice but your body prepares anyway). It's better to accept yourself until you aren't concerned about it anymore, or you can do something about it. I know easier said than done. It's taken me years to accept my large chest and even now I have days where I'm like if only they were smaller...

without being petty i just wish i was as pretty and you all and my friends. i really really hate my body as pathetic as that sounds, i reallly do
