Your Bod

My breasts are growing too fast!

I’m in the ninth grade and already need a 38DD bra. Could I have Huge Boob Syndrome? My mom is a 36B, so I can’t go by her. I’m the genetic freak in my family.
We searched everywhere for info on Huge Boob Syndrome. There was nothing on the Web. And none of our experts had heard of it.
There is no such thing as Huge Boob Syndrome—and we’re guessing you already know that. You are probably healthy and normal, but you should see your pediatrician or gynecologist to make sure.
In very rare cases, too much growth hormone can make one body part grow excessively. So even though your mom is a 36B, ask for her, um, support. She can help you find the best bras—you need good ones because large breasts are linked to back problems.
Remember that all kinds of boobs are beautiful, and many not-as-chest-blessed girls envy you.
