Understanding Breast Development: Exploring Potential Causes for Small Breasts

Question
most of the women in my family are rather large chested, but i seem to be the only one with exceptionally small breasts. I'm 18, so most of my development should be over with, leading me to wonder whether I should be tested for a hormone imbalances. On the scale, I'ma little bit of a late bloomer, I guess, but its been a few years since i've stopped growing. Could there be somethhing else that's making my chest remain underdeveloped??

Answer
Hormones could possible be the reason.  Sometimes a hormone imbalance can have an effect on breast growth.  Are you taking any prescription medicines?  Do you have any health problems?  Are your periods regular?  What about other areas of growth?  Do you feel sexual desire?  Are you able to have orgasms?  You may mark your response private if you like.
