Macromastia, Mammary Hypertrophy, or Gigantomastia
While Large breasts are desired by many Beverly Hills women, too large of breasts are however a source of discomfort, nuisance, and embarrassment for many others in Los Angeles.

They are troubled that their breast size and not their achievements or personality are the first thing that people notice about them.

For many people, large breasts indicate femininity and beauty. This is not the case, however, for women who suffer the symptoms of having excessively large breasts, as described above.
Mammary Hypertrophy, or disproportionately large breasts, is indeed a disabling physical condition that is often overlooked in a culture that equates large breasts with attractiveness.
