A 19-year-old woman\u2019s breasts stunningly grew from a B cup to a triple G in the six months following her Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination in what researchers are calling a first-of-its-kind case<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The unidentified \u201chealthy young woman\u201d reportedly started experiencing the rapid growth one week after getting vaccinated in September 2022 \u2014 and it worsened after her second dose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe patient believed that the vaccine caused her breast growth; however, her concerns were not adequately addressed by her primary care physicians, leading to mistrust in the healthcare system,\u201d Toronto-based researchers wrote last month in the Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery-Global Open journal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The study authors pointed to the so-called \u201cPfizer boob job\u201d phenomenon<\/a> \u2014 some women claimed their breasts grew after getting the shot, but there\u2019s no evidence that was the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The researchers report that while lymph node swelling is a \u201cknown side effect\u201d<\/a> of COVID-19 vaccination, changes to the structure or density of breast tissue are \u201cexceedingly rare.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The study authors said there\u2019s only been one published case detailing distinctive breast changes after the Pfizer booster, and it was a noticeable lump. This woman did not have a lump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The woman was found to have a very rare condition in which a benign lesion called PASH causes extreme breast enlargement \u2014 fewer than 20 cases have ever been documented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThis case is the first to demonstrate a temporal association between PASH-associated gigantomastia and a vaccine,\u201d the researchers wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Post reached out to Pfizer for comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The woman reported feeling a tingling in her breasts before they grew. Doctors didn\u2019t notice hormonal changes in her blood work and prescribed her steroids and antibiotics to no avail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Her breasts stopped growing after six months and she underwent reduction surgery five months later, according to the case report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She lost a lot of blood during the procedure, which limited the amount of breast tissue surgeons could remove. She has double D breasts and may get another breast reduction to return to her normal size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Toronto study authors are calling for further research to see if there\u2019s a link between the COVID-19 vaccine, PASH and rapid breast growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n More than 13.6 billion COVID-19 doses<\/a> have been administered worldwide since 2020. A small proportion of those immunized were harmed by the shots<\/a>, with medical professionals saying the benefits still outweigh the risks<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Teen\u2019s breasts grew to triple G-cup size following COVID vaccination: \u2018Concerns not adequately addressed\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3657,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3619","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-3.jpeg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3619","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3619"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3619\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3658,"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3619\/revisions\/3658"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3657"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3619"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3619"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3619"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/asproposito.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-2.jpeg\")
