Hi GorgeousBlonde,
A cup size is an inch, right? The difference is 898.5 mm - 824.3 mm = 74.2 mm, which is 3", or 3 cup sizes. 1" is 25.4 mm.
Estrogens grow the milk ducts. They make the breasts conical, but they also contribute most to what we call "growth", because the nipples stick out from the chest on the ducts, like on poles.
Progesterone causes lobular-alveolar development, which rounds the breasts out. It determines how much milk a breast can produce and store. But roundness doesn't measure as growth with the tape.
Between ages 16 and 21, there is more estrogens, more growth, and the breasts become conical. After age 21, progesterone builds their capacity to produce milk, and rounds them out.
