There are several diseases that can cause breast size reduction, such as hypopituitarism, anterior pituitary insufficiency, or pituitary dwarfism. However, there are also various other causes for decreased breast size, including malnutrition, significant weight loss within a short period, or other non-disease-related factors. If this occurs, it is recommended to visit a hospital for further examination to identify the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment accordingly.
