Gigantomastia causes rapid, excessive breast tissue growth - which caused Pamelia to go from a J to an M cup in just eight months. It is caused by a range of factors including hormonal changes, medications, and autoimmune diseases, but Pamelia’s cause is currently unknown.
In January 2022, Pamelia's bust was 100cm, seven months later she had grown to 114cm. As of 5 January, it measured 131cm - causing her massive physical and mental discomfort.
Pamelia, an OnlyFans content creator, said: “It is very uncomfortable - they are so heavy and I can be in a lot of pain.
“At first it was fun and interesting to see how much they were growing, but recently I’ve grown to be uncomfortable and I find myself wishing I had normal-sized breasts."
Pamelia says she struggles to find clothing to fit her and has taken to wearing oversized t-shirts: "There are very limited options for bigger-busted women, especially if you don’t want to have your cleavage on show."
She continued: "I feel very self-conscious when going out in public. If I wear something that is tight on my chest, I notice women giving me looks.
"I feel like I'm getting dirty looks for having such large breasts so I tend to stay at home - my mental health has suffered from it.”
Pamelia also suffers from polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) so is undergoing testing to see if the two conditions could be related.
In the meantime, her best option is to get a breast reduction, which she is hoping to get at some point in 2023. She has one son, seven-year-old Pagan J, but she would like to have another baby before the surgery.
There is also a chance that her breasts could grow back to their current size after the reduction, but Pamelia is looking forward to having some of her discomforts eased.
Pamelia, who lives in Melbourne, has been sharing her experiences on TikTok and says she's yet to come across anyone else talking about gigantomastia.
She hopes sharing her story will encourage people to think twice before passing judgment on her appearance.
“The online reaction has been surprisingly positive overall and I’ve had a lot of women sharing their experience with getting a reduction," Pamelia said.
“Of course, you get the odd rude comment but for the most part, I feel that it's opened people's eyes to what gigantomastia is - it is a very rare condition so most people don't know about it.
“I’d like people to do research before giving an opinion on the way that I look. It is uncomfortable and it is NOT easy to have gigantomastia.”
