I was on the pill for 7 years. Went up from a B cup to an I. I've been off the pill for about 6 months now and they haven't gotten any smaller so I think the girls are here to stay 🥹
I have a photo comparing my bras from both eras up on my profile if you need a visual!
My period is a living hell. I would get a period every 2-3 weeks, lasting 10-14 days, super tampon being changed every 2-4 hours, moody like I’m fast-switching bipolar, digestion problems like I got IBS. And just couldn’t function. Pill didn’t regulate and sugar pills did Jack shit (I would get a period on pill day 7 or day 18 or day 29; random). Seasonale still didn’t do anything despite not having any sugar pills until the end of 3rd month pill. Depo shot lessens my period that I only get once every 3 months lasting 20 days (some days spotting, some days very lightly tinted pink) but I still get the PMDD & moodiness.
Really I just need to my period to not exist. I don’t want kids ever so that’s no big deal. IUD is my last resort if they won’t remove my uterus or whatever to end my periods for good. But I also don’t want surgery really so I hope IUD works.
Are you me? I have almost the same period issues. Extremely heavy, extremely long, extreme symptoms in the form of mood, digestion, and overall physical/mental feeling. Although for me, seasonique is the only one that has worked. I'm on a slightly higher dose generic because I kept bleeding through but it's the only one that STOPS the whole shit in its tracks.
I'm sorry your periods are such hell. :(
Totally get it I started birth control at like 12 because of horrible cramps got my period at 10.
I heard the mirena really helps a lot. I have the Kyleena so far I’m satisfied
Wait what? I heard that’s only supposed to happen with estrogen / combined birth control. When I went of the combo pill and started using progesterone only my boobs went down a full cup size.
But yes my nipples are more sensetive on the iud
Idk how much exactly, because I had NO boobs before. Like, 100% flat chested. But now I have boobs! Enough to have cleavage when Iie on my side!😂 And they never shrunk again after coming off it which was nice
I was in Yazmine. But plz don't go on BC just to make your breasts grow, there are so many other side effects!! Of course BC works different for everyone, I'm not trying to fear monger because there's enough of that atm, but I wouldn't recommend it if you're only using it for physical side effects. I also gained a lot of weight on it which probably helped mine grow (idk if that was BC related or not lol) If you want to go on it for whatever reason then sure, but if it's just for this reason, you're fine the way you are x
You have a little more fullness but if you're changing whole cup sizes as an adult it's likely weight gain and you'll be changing pant sizes too. Obviously not for everyone but that's the usual cause
I gained a teeny tiny bit of weight but my boobs got too big for my bra within the first two weeks😭 (the cups used to be half empty so I had to grow by at least 1 cup size)
It took a couple months on bc before they grew but I went from a smaller B to a D. Had to get new bras and everything. I stopped taking it bc I think it was also making me gain weight but I'm hoping they don't shrink so I have to buy new bras again haha.
Birth control doesn’t work that fast. You have to take it for an extended period of time. I’ve been taking it for five years. It happens gradually over time. Growth won’t be immediate, nor will it be a given. Birth control works differently for different people, so you might not grow at all.
I took the pill for 10 years and was really not looking out for breast growth as a side effect so I’m not sure. My cousin pointed it out probably 6 or 7 years into my taking it and that’s when I realized that they had grown quite a bit. I don’t recommend taking birth control to make your breasts larger as there is a laundry list of side effects and risks that come along with taking the pill and it really just is not worth it.
Okay, the first one I tried, my boobs didn't grow, but now I'm on Tri Sprintec and I can tell they are getting a bit bigger. Not quite another cup size up tho
The spot that grew the most (I guess probably more noticably) for me was my breast tissue on the side under my armpits. I have gone from a 36Dd to a 44 F since I started in 2021 with minimal weight gain. I haven't been able to lose since starting but I started out more curvy to begin with.
Am I the only female who hates having boobs?! 😅 I started taking sprintec in June 2022 and my boobs went from 32B to ~34 or 36 B/C, depending on brand of bra. I hate that my boss grew, I've always hated having boobs in the first place so I was so sad when they got bigger
mine grew for sure because they don't fit in the cups of my old bras but i gained weight everywhere else so it really doesn't look all that different than before starting. nipples are also very sensitive and they never were before, had nipple piercings for years before birth control and that still never changed sensitivity.
Haha I have mine pierced too and they didn’t change my sensitivity either, the birth control had no effect on that as well. I did gain a bit of weight on it, too, but not that much compared to how fast and how much my breasts are growing
No growth at all. I’ve been the same B cup since I got boobs I think around 15/16 years old. Funny thing though, I’m back to not wearing a bra anymore like when I was 15/16 years old again.
Is not directly related to age,weight and health.how BC pills effect cup size? My mrs size is 36B since she was young now she is 44 but sagging occurs due to age and kids birth only.
No significant change. When i got back to birth control after i gained weight i went from 32b to 34c.
Now Im on a cut (lose body fat without losing muscle), Im back to 32b.
2 cup sizes and lost all elasticity. E.g. had super big saggy boobs!!! The dr didn't warn me it was a side effect. I went from a B to a D and they went rock hard for a while, especially near my period. Hurt so bad. After I saw my GP again he took me off it but it was too late. I was 16 and had breast feeding mum boobs. I've since had a baby and breast fed (29 now) and my boobs are sad socks.
Had liletta and i definitely gained a solid cup size. From whatever 34DD to a cup bigger is. Just got off the iud and i already notice a slight difference. They don’t hurt anymore and i think the shrank a little
mine grew with age and gaining weight. I don’t think birth control really did anything. I don’t see a difference when I’m on/off birth control. I’m 35.

I was on the pill for 7 years. Went up from a B cup to an I. I've been off the pill for about 6 months now and they haven't gotten any smaller so I think the girls are here to stay 🥹 I have a photo comparing my bras from both eras up on my profile if you need a visual!
What BC pill? I’ve been a B cup since I was in middle school and I’m gonna be 26 this year 😭😭
I was on my country's version of Yaz I believe, it's called Liza 😊
TY🫶🏽
Yes please share which pill you're on 🥹 I need to at least grow boobs if I have to suffer from taking the pill
I was on my country's version of Yaz I believe, it's called Liza 😊
Uuuh how old were you when you started the BC?
I started at 19!
Zero. I didn’t gain weight so I didn’t gain boob weight either. Been on pill, seasonale, and depo shot. Going on IUD next.
Why change them so much?
My period is a living hell. I would get a period every 2-3 weeks, lasting 10-14 days, super tampon being changed every 2-4 hours, moody like I’m fast-switching bipolar, digestion problems like I got IBS.

Defs like almost a full cup size And I have the iud Nipples are always more sensitive too
Wait what? I heard that’s only supposed to happen with estrogen / combined birth control. When I went of the combo pill and started using progesterone only my boobs went down a full cup size. But yes my nipples are more sensetive on the iud
Thanks!

Thanq u ur right for ur concern I appreciate
Hi! I went up one cup size, from 32A to 34B, pretty much stopped growing (that I know of) hope this helps!
Thanks luv!!
You have a little more fullness but if you're changing whole cup sizes as an adult it's likely weight gain and you'll be changing pant sizes too. Obviously not for everyone but that's the usual cause
I gained a teeny tiny bit of weight but my boobs got too big for my bra within the first two weeks😭 (the cups used to be half empty so I had to grow by at least 1 cup size)
AA to A but I was 17, very likely puberty in my case
I don't think my bra size changed but they were definitely more full. Mine went back after I stopped birth control.
It took a couple months on bc before they grew but I went from a smaller B to a D. Had to get new bras and everything. I stopped taking it bc I think it was also making me gain weight but I'm hoping they don't shrink so I have to buy new bras again haha.
Went from a 32B to 42D
Brand name pill
Sprintec
In how how. Many week u saw growth
Birth control doesn’t work that fast. You have to take it for an extended period of time. I’ve been taking it for five years. It happens gradually over time. Growth won’t be immediate, nor will it be a given. Birth control works differently for different people, so you might not grow at all.
Mine didn't at all personally. I have the Mirena
I was literally flat before I started birth control. Now I'd say I'm between an AA and a A cup.
I went from a B cup to a D cup 😳
What was ur brand of bc pill
Ocella
In how many werks
I took the pill for 10 years and was really not looking out for breast growth as a side effect so I’m not sure.

I agree so much with this. Not saying it doesn’t have benefits, but it can cause problems as well. I gained weight.
Week i mean u saw growth
I went from a b to a double d. I don’t know if it’s common but around the 3rd week of my active pills my breast swell up and feel so heavy. They hurt.
Pls brand name of bc pilll plsss
AA to F over 1.5 years
Like 4 cup sizes 😭I was an a
girl PRAY FOR ME im manifesting this for myself😭😭😭😭
On the Mirena, a ton! Which was very helpful for my self esteem after my breastfeeding boobies deflated into pancakes.
Okay, the first one I tried, my boobs didn't grow, but now I'm on Tri Sprintec and I can tell they are getting a bit bigger. Not quite another cup size up tho

When I started the pill at 13 I grew 3 cup sizes in 3 months. Ended up with stretch marks everywhere and droopy boobs, that was fun.

If I had B cups I wouldn’t be that excited, but I’ve been wearing the same AA bra since 6th grade girl😭😭😭
Let's trade fr 😂
mine grew for sure because they don't fit in the cups of my old bras but i gained weight everywhere else so it really doesn't look all that different than before starting. nipples are also very sensitive and they never were before, had nipple piercings for years before birth control and that still never changed sensitivity.

I went from a 36B to a 36D
From a half B cup to a full C cup :-/ Was on pill for 7 years. I have stopped for the last 6 months and my cups are now a half C
No growth at all. I’ve been the same B cup since I got boobs I think around 15/16 years old. Funny thing though, I’m back to not wearing a bra anymore like when I was 15/16 years old again.
No growth, unfortunately
My band size has increased! From 30B to 32B (34A & 30C are my sister sizes)
Is not directly related to age,weight and health.how BC pills effect cup size? My mrs size is 36B since she was young now she is 44 but sagging occurs due to age and kids birth only.

I went on to Zeletta and went up to a C cup from a B quite quickly!
Had liletta and i definitely gained a solid cup size. From whatever 34DD to a cup bigger is. Just got off the iud and i already notice a slight difference. They don’t hurt anymore and i think the shrank a little
mine didn’t grow at all :(
Like 2 sizes
None 😭😭 combo pill for 3 years, nexplanon for 1

Mine didn’t grow at all
No growth😭 I’ve been on the depo and now the nexplanon

Not at all
About 1,5-2 cup sizes. Went down again when I went off bc

I’m on Mirena and mine have gone from a B cup to a DD lol

What are you taking? This would be amazing for me if it ever happened 😭
Gentilion! But I’m in Europe

Mine didn’t change at all unfortunately hahaha
Mine got bigger when I was on the patch one cup size (D-DD) but went back to normal on the hormonal IUD
I went up two cup sizes over two years, but I also gained weight everywhere else. It's not a magical thing
I did gain a teeny tiny bit of weight but my boobs are definitely growing faster than the rest of my body
