Yes, your breasts can grow again in your late 20s. And yes, this is normal. We'll explain what it's all about.

Have you ever wondered why your breasts suddenly change shape or grow in your late 20s? If so, you are not alone in this mystery. Because many women have to deal with seemingly delayed breast growth in various ways. We'll explain what's behind it.

Breast growth is normal for all women as they age

Recently, Salma Hayek spoke about breast augmentation, which she underwent. The 54-year-old actress explained on the talk show Red Table Talk: "There are women who get bigger breasts when they gain weight, and other women who get bigger breasts when they breastfeed their child and which also don't get smaller again, and then there are also cases in which the breasts grow during menopause."

The actress explains that her breasts have grown in all these three phases. And this conversation seems to have created a real wave of relief among women of the world, because they are not alone with their unevenly distributed breast growth.

Women around the world are talking about breast growth as they age

One user on Twitter wrote, "I don't know her personal situation, but we should talk more about how breasts change and grow due to weight changes or children, but also due to different things in our lives! I feel like not many people discuss this."

This tweet got many women to write about their breast growth as well. They talk about their breasts not really growing until they were 27 or in their mid-30s. Others write about how only one of their breasts is growing and the other is taking quite a while.

However, this is not just about breast growth, but also about a reduction in the size of the breasts. As a result, one user writes, "Mine went from a C-cup to an A-cup overnight when I was 27. They never grew back to their old size when I gained weight and/or got pregnant. I don't know why that is, but it saved me from a lifetime of back problems."

Breast growth: second puberty?

Apparently, we're not alone in experiencing sudden breast growth. But where does this one come from now? Is this, for instance, a second puberty? No, says surgeon Pundrique Sharma to Tyla magazine. There is no medical evidence for such a claim, he says. "However, some women do not finish puberty, which includes breast development until their mid-20s. Therefore, breast growth can still occur in the early 20s."

Sharma links breast growth to the presence of hormones. Oral contraceptives or pregnancy can affect these hormones as well as estrogen in the body. These, of course, are also responsible for breast growth.

"Other factors, like the skin around the breast, can also have a big impact on how breasts look. As we get older, our skin loses elasticity, which can lead to a change in the appearance of breasts for women in their mid-20s and mid-30s″, Sharma continues.

Breast growth is normal, but should be controlled

As you can see, the growth of breasts with age is completely normal and also biological. However, if you notice anything unusual when you feel your breasts, a visit to your doctor is a good idea. Keeping an eye on your breasts is therefore a very important part of self-care, so that you can go through life healthy and safe.
