Breast size reduction may be caused by poor lifestyle habits, weight loss, etc. Dieting and slimming can both lead to decreased body fat, which may cause atrophy of breast glandular tissue or result in smaller breasts. Wearing bras that are too tight can affect normal breast development and contribute to breast shrinkage. In some cases, breast reduction may be a symptom of breast cancer. It is recommended that patients seek timely examination and treatment at a正规 hospital to avoid delaying diagnosis and treatment.
