Woman Suffers from Gigantomastia – Breasts So Large She Can’t Move!

A recent story in the news told the woes of a Peruvian woman who has a condition called gigantomastia. You may recall in discussions prior to this, that a condition called gynecomastia, where men grow breasts similar to how women do. This is a form of breast growth that goes out of control similar to that, only it occurs in a woman, and the growth is so out of control that it becomes painful for women to walk around and even move.

And some of us pine for larger breasts, I bet these women would love nothing more than to have them downsized, big time. Just goes to show that there is such a thing as too much of a “good thing”.

The condition of gigantomastia often occurs during puberty in women, but also occurs during pregnancy due to hormonal fluctuation. For this particular woman, who grew to an unseemly N cup during her last pregnancy, and has been bed bound since then due to the immense pain she’s in when she tries to get up, it was the pregnancy that prompted the out of control growth.

Other than surgery, I didn’t see that there was much else they can do for women with this problem. The pictures of this poor woman look extremely painful and uncomfortable. I can’t imagine that’s any way to live. So ladies, just when you want to complain about your boobs, take a second look and realize you are lucky compared to people who have problems like this
