Of course my NBE-crazy self found some research that prednisone in a few cases have triggered macromastia/gigantomastia ? aka; giant mind blowing boobs.
Jokes aside not even I want crazy boobs like that, but I’m curios if anyone smarter than me understands this correlation? In my “research” I also found some may have the opposite effect with elevated testosterone instead.
Anyone with experience of prednisone and breast growt?
Im gunna go out on a whim here and say its probably because its technically a steroid meaning it might trigger growth hormones? I know an ex of mine was on steroidal strength asthma meds as a child and it triggered his body into full blown puberty very very young aka facial hair, body hair etc
