Despite conventional wisdom and how Old-Hollywood starlets, and Victoria's Secret Angels make it look , having big breasts can actually be pretty inconvenient. As a large-chested person myself, I can't tell you how many times I've looked down and noticed one of my buttons had popped open. Of course, there are some benefits built-in food shelf, anyone? But even if you love your boobs in all their glory, there are certain things everyone with big breasts can relate to.

There is evidence of early puberty leading to increased risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and cancer — particularly breast cancer. Until now, unfortunately, scientists have poorly understood the processes that make some girls develop younger than others. But new findings from our research at the University of Glasgow solve a large part of the mystery and could have important health implications as a result. It is usual for girls to develop breasts around the age of ten, though plenty start earlier or later and this is often seen as normal and harmless.
On average, it's about two years from the time a girl first starts to show any breast development to the time that she actually starts her periods. Since girls in the United States start their periods anywhere from 9 to 15 years of age, breast development starting as early as 7 years of age is normal. In general, a girl starts her period in a pattern similar to her mother; if Mom started early, her daughter is more likely to start early. This isn't an absolute rule, though. Factors such as nutrition overweight children can start sooner than they otherwise might, and underweight children may start later and illness can influence the onset of puberty. Keep in mind that, when you discuss body changes and puberty with young girls, your approach may need to be very different if you're talking to an 8-year-old rather than a year-old. The language that you use will need to be simpler, and any reading materials that you use need to be assessed to see if they are written at an appropriate grade level. Also, an 8-year-old may be uncomfortable discussing or showing her body changes to her peers and it's important to make sure your daughter feels comfortable talking with you about any questions that she may have. A girl starting her period at 9 or 10 will probably need a more in-depth demonstration of pads and how to use them than a teenager would.
