Many of the women pictured have clear signs of hypoplasia.which is really
sad.  What have we done to ourselves over the years with pollution, hormones
in our food, a few generations fed ABM.I see more and more cases each year
and am currently working with 4 moms struggling with hypoplasia sometimes
combined with PCOS.  The feelings of their bodies failing them are so
difficult to deal with.  It is just so hard.I never tell them I understand
what they are going through because I don't.   

 

What I like about this 007 site tho is that it does put a better perspective
on just how different each woman is in her body/breast structure.  When I
first got into this field I was shocked at how different each woman was from
the other.  I truly believed (this will show you how naive I was.) that
everyone else looked the same and I was the odd one.(OK, so at age 19 when
my Dr asked me if I was going to have my newborn son circumcised I asked him
what a circumcision was.I had no clue!  Not bright in my early years.)
Anyway - it is nice to have a site that puts things into perspective, but it
would be even more interesting to have that site or another one perhaps,
show pictures of women with hypoplastic breasts even if only so moms women
who are dealing with this issue can see that they are NOT alone.

 

Just my thoughts late tonight.

 

Warmly,
