Adolescent gigantomastia can be divided into three categories: 1. Teenage gigantomastia: breasts begin to increase rapidly before the age of 13 and still show no signs of stabilization or cessation of development by the age of 18; 2. Adolescent gigantomastia: is breast development that begins at puberty and stabilizes or stops by the age of 18; 3. Obese gigantomastia: body obesity with a body mass index of more than 30. Clinically common are categories 2 or 3, and adolescent gigantomastia is mostly accompanied by obesity, with obesity macromastia is difficult to distinguish.
