i could use some advice - marleebear - 05-27-2014
hi so i have b cups at the moment so they aren't huge but they're still boobs very noticeable boobs and as its obvious with me posting on this forum i want them gone and i was wondering if any of you had any idea as to pricing because i've seen pricing being mostly 8k and i honestly don't have that kind of money being a student so i was looking to see if anyone knew of anywhere that it costs less than my life savings thank you in advance for any advice (please don't say I'm too young i know I'm young but i've been wanting this for years and I'm ready i just can't have these anymore they're holding me back from being me, the real me)

Pricing can vary a lot depending on surgeon, surgeon location, procedure, etc. You can find pricing from various surgeons here to get a ballpark idea: http://www.topsurgery.net/costs/
Regardless of what price quotes you wind up getting, top surgery is expensive and loads of trans men have a hard time paying for it. You mentioned that you're a student. Have you looked closely at your student health plan to see if top surgery is covered?
You can find more information about U.S. insurance here:

And you can find lists of surgery financing companies and surgery grants here: http://www.topsurgery.net/costs/top-surgery-financing.htm
I hope this helps!
