I had radiotherapy in 2018 on my right side. I was a 38G, recently changed to a 40F.
The last time I saw my surgeon about 18 months ago I mentioned the decreasing size of the breast that had been treated. He said that this is a normal side effect of radiotherapy. I was given options for plastic surgery should I choose. I opted not to do anything about it as the size difference wasn't a problem.
Now through, the difference is very obvious. Probably at least two cup sizes smaller than the left. As I'm 59, there is no doubt that some of the loss is age related.
My question is: is this continuing reduction in size normal 6 years after treatment and should I see my GP or contact the surgeon to make him aware? I feel as though it's going to continue to shrink which wouldn't look so odd if it was bilateral.
Thanks for reading.
