any women/medical professionals out there... er, drugs and boobs?

[jezebella]

this is going to sound really fucking weird but it's something me and some friends have wondered about. basically, has anyone else noticed their boobs being heavier with some drugs? (not sore at all, just heavier and less perky). we're thinking maybe it's increased lymph or something...??? very odd! any contributions would be curiously received!

Erm... not really sure where this should go... lets try healthy living first and they can move it if they feel its more appropriate somewhere else.

Male here so I won't have a lot to contribute, but when you look at a drug's profile prolactin effects are probably what is relevant to breast size. Dopamine pathways tend to effect prolactin levels. Info on the metabolic and neurotransmission effects of drugs tend to accrue over decades so many drugs have unclear profiles on such things for the time being.

now that u said yh actually! we had a girly night that turned into a girly mdma night recently which involved back rubs...ahhhh....my friend thought it would be fun to take a picture of my boobs anyway...looking at the pics the next day...i remember complaining they looked less perky...maybe thats why haha!

glad it's not a completely crazy problem! prolactin may be a good place to start - basically, my only fear would be if it could build up over time and have a permanent effect, instead of it just going away which is what it seems to do.

hmm I cant find anything on it...so hopefully this would indicate it isnt a long term effect? I hope not anyways :S

I have never noticed any real breast changes on various types of drugs
