Yes, yes, but we live in this timeline so the research that will be done into the mediating factors will 100% become a "breast enlargement therapy" in health spas should it even remotely be found to be repeatable, controllable and safe be damned.

You are right of course.
I guess most replies were just for the title and never bothered to read the actual document.

She would have had to have woken up every morning with a noticable increase in size

I'm ~2 months on estrogen and my family gets massive boobs, that's essentially my life lol
it's great! (for me, probably not for her)

"dude my dick grew 4 inches longer after taking the shot!!"

Maybe we should hope for some cases where men get a really huge dingdong, them all of the sudden there will be a run for it.

I hate this world

I doubt that. There are both men and women who prefer small.

What might happen, is that whatever cultural ideal becomes contemporary, is also what most people will opt for, but that won't mean people on the fringes of the bell curve stop existing.

I find it more likely that if big breasts become "easy" to get, the ideal will simply shift to something else, as the rarity is part of the appeal.

If a trait becomes common, at least some portion of people lose interest.

re: gene editing

Ummm what kind of deranged psycho would sit in a doctors office and specify:"I want my daughter to have huge tits!"

Speak for yourself

turns around with massive cans

I don't think that that many women want bigger boobs. I have more friends who dislike having big boobs vs small boobs.

The paper includes images of the patient and specified it was bilateral.

Well,patients do get asked for consent before these pictures are taken (and usually are again asked for approval again when the whole thing is layouted).

But,tbh, most patient I got to know with similar, rare, cases are often more than happy to help science and help other patients who experience the same right now or in the future.

I personally had a case I worked with peripherally where a breast implant basically exploded after a road traffic accident and the poor, rather young, patient suffered from a catastrophic infection and bodily reaction before that. As in: "She nearly died,was on ecmo, needed her sternum replaced"-catastrophic. (And no, not a cosmetic breast implant, just making sizes equal)

Tbh, despite extensive plastic surgery the final result was...really grim. I have seen third degree burns with a better cosmetic result.. Especially for such a young woman. Further correction would need to be done much later, at least 5 years from then. She was nevertheless very keen on appearing in the case report and did willingly take part in photos(and even provided pre incident photos), appeared in front of medical students and interns, etc. It was part of her way of dealing with it,of making sense out of this freak occurrence.

Patient grew from B size to GGG

For anyone who isn't so cooked to go "hehe big boobs" that's absolutely terrifying amount of growth. DD is quite large to begin with but probably about the limit for avoiding back and other problems. Also finding sexy bras for even just DDs is hard enough I can't imagine the cost and challenge of finding specialty bras for triple-Gs
