Achondroplasia should not directly influence the breasts, but it is
possible that if the mom is obese (weight control can be harder for
people with achondroplasia, because back pain can make exercise
difficult, and there is less limb length to spread weight out on...)
that she might have some insulin resistence. It is always possible for
two unrelated defects (achondroplasia and hypoplastic breasts) to occur
together in one person, even though they are not genetically related.
