Firmness

[AbbaZabba]

Another one of my curiosity questions. God didn't give me the biggest set of boobs by any means, 34b if I think big. Anyways, mine are extremely firm and the best way to describe them is maybe like squeezing an orange or tennis ball. I googled it and mainly get exercises to make them firmer, which I don't need. Does anyone else have firm boobs or is it possible they are still growing and that's why they are so firm?

You’re partly right when you say they are firm because you’re still developing. The breast tissue in your case is denser and density refers to relative proportion of fibrous or glandular tissue to fatty tissue in the breast. As you get older it's normal for most women to lose some of this density and is replaces by fatty tissue and the breast begin to fall. The exercise you’re referring to actually firms up the Pecs that lie under the breast which can make the breast slightly bigger. Hormone levels play an important part in breast density or as you call it firmness.

Thank you, I know I'm not lacking hormones, that's for sure, so does high hormone levels make them denser?

To a point which explains why some women that take harmonal therapy after menopuse have firmer breast than before they entered menopause. this was true of my grandmother.
