Physician here. Exactly. Poland syndrome. But's that pretty obviously a malformation and much less common than just mild to moderate asymmetry.

It would have been really helpful if some doctor had mentioned the possibility to me before I burned my boobs off attached to a pump and dealing with taping formula tubes to my chest when my dc was newborn.

Did you not meet with a lactation consultant? They would have spotted this immediately.

I did. She didn't mention anything was wrong with my boobs. She just said to keep working on getting the supply up with the SNS and pumping round the clock. And fenugreek. And other weird supplements.

That said, I'm mid-40s now, and would consider getting them reduced because they're huge and heavy. Doesn't help with the back issues. My insurance will cover it because of the medical aspect of protecting my back.

It’s normal. A lot of people aren’t perfectly symmetrical and have one foot larger than the other, one arm longer, etc.

Scoli pp - literally nothing about my body is symmetrical. It would honestly look super weird if I had all these other mismatched parts and then perfect boobs.

Mine are uneven (by 2 cup sizes) because of a brace I wore for my scoli, which smashed my chest wall on one side. I never had them "fixed" because they're not broken. I nursed two kids just fine. When aesthetics matter, I can pad my bra.

This isn't a "defect" it's just a difference. See a doctor about it, if you want, but surgery isn't necessary (and your insurance will likely treat it as what it is: cosmetic).
