Gwendlyn Brownis getting real about her experience with getting a breast reduction.
On her Instagram Stories Thursday, Brown, the daughter ofSister WivesstarsKody Brownand Christine Brown, wrote a pointed message: “I have small boobs and it’s cute, ok?”
She shared a photo of herself lying in a hospital bed that was snapped after she underwent a breast reduction.
In a follow-up message, she revealed that she had the operation in July and said, “I went from a size G breast to like C or something (i haven’t measured yet).”
She shared that even after the reduction, “the funny part is i wanted them to be even smaller.”
Sharing a disappointing aspect of her experience, she said that her insurance did not cover the operation, “which pissed my mom off bc they said they would … and insurance was insanely expensive and the breast reduction was medically necessary for a few reasons including back pain and posture deterioration.”

She confessed that she was unable to pay for the surgery after already having a hard time covering rent and tuition, so her mother covered the operation.
“i’m always grateful that my mom paid for it. the surgery cost ~$8,000 if i remember correctly and i owe her forever … "
Gwendlyn’s health news comes just weeks after she experienced another life-changing moment: getting engaged.
In December, she accepted a proposal from her girlfriend Beatriz Queiroz and shared the sweet moment on Instagram.
