I'm a 22 yr old female with CAH. Ive never had any health problems with CAH at all. I have been monitored perfectly my whole life. But lately i have been wondering if i was over medicated & it supressed my hormones too much. Even though i had great health, i still don't look or have the body of a typical 22 yr old. I feel l ike my endo over treated me to make sure i stayed healthy but conceited the fact that i would develope at normal rate. The reason i say this is b/c i have barely any breast development. (i'm not even an A cup) My areolas are not flat & contoured to my breasts & they are very tiny. They don't look like the breasts of a 22 yr old. I now weigh 115lbs but up until last year i was under 100lbs my whole life. I had no curves like all the other girls. I have not changed my eating habits at all so that can't be reson for my weight gain. I'm finally starting to gain weight & look somewhat like a normal 22 yr old. I have some but minimal curves. (But i'm still totally flat chested). I got my period at 12, which is normal but I feel like i never completly developed or its been delayed b/c of my medication. I feel like i'm still developing at 22. Does anyone have a similar problem & thinks its b/c of being overly supressed?
