What causes the feeling of having smaller chest?
Disease description:
I used to feel that my breasts weren't particularly small, but now I don't know what's going on—I feel like they're getting smaller and smaller. What could be the reason for feeling that your breasts are shrinking?

Feeling that the chest has become smaller may be due to declining estrogen levels with age, leading to atrophy of the mammary glands. It could also be related to breastfeeding, as hormonal changes during pregnancy cause breast enlargement, while after lactation, hormone levels gradually stabilize and the mammary glands return to their normal state, which may result in a reduction in breast size.
