19-year-old after vaccination: breast growth from B to G – a medical puzzle!

A 19-year-old Canadian woman is experiencing an extraordinary case of breast growth following her COVID-19 vaccination, causing a stir in the medical community. Loud Today.at forcing the study authors to consider this the first documented case of such a drastic change. Immediately after her first dose in September 2022, her breasts began to grow, which was accompanied by a tingling sensation. After the second vaccination, she noticed further increase and sought medical attention after six months. Upon examination, it was found that the lymph nodes were swollen and the blood vessels were enlarged, but there were no hormonal changes. Her symptoms ultimately led doctors to a rare condition known as pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia (PASH).

Diagnosis and treatment

PASH is a cell proliferation that usually causes benign lumps in the breast and has only been documented in about 200 cases. The doctors emphasize that there is currently no reliable evidence that the vaccinations were the sole trigger for this condition. This reports oe24.at. After the diagnosis, the young woman underwent a breast reduction 11 months after her first vaccination, during which over 8 pounds (3.6 kilograms) of tissue was removed. The severity of the situation means that she is now considering options for further intervention to regain her original B size.

Doctors suspect that the COVID-19 vaccination triggered an immune reaction that led to the temporarily swollen lymph nodes, giving the impression of larger breast volume. This is a sophisticated theory that encompasses the complexities of tissue response to vaccines. Regardless of the medical circumstances, the case remains one of the most interesting developments related to vaccination reactions and their possible side effects.
