My breast size is only 30 with a very small cup size and I'm really self-conscious about it. Are there any medications or non-surgical options to help increase breast size naturally? I'm not interested in surgery but would love to know if there are other ways to enhance it.

Breast size is mostly genetic; no proven non-surgical method works‚Äîoils and supplements lack evidence, consult a specialist.

I was using isotroin20 for a while and it seems to have given me PCOD. Now I'm on aldactone50 and it's causing breast pain. I'm really worried and wondering if I should just stop taking it immediately or if I need to gradually reduce the dosage. Any advice on what I should do?

It is not recommended to stop aldactone-50 abruptly, as it can lead to potential withdrawal effects. It is advisable to gradually reduce the dosage under the guidance of your healthcare provider. You may need to taper off the medication slowly to minimize any potential side effects.
