What Causes Delayed Growth In Breasts Post Puberty?

Hi there, this is a little embarrassing for me to say, but I haven't fully developed properly per say, I'm a 19 year old female, and my breasts are still..rather pointed.. I don't know if this will change, or if it'll stay the same but if it stays the same..I need help..I'm not exactly a small girl either, I sit at about 185-200lbs but I wouldn't say I'm fat y'know? I just needed a little advice, like with my breasts still grow or will they stay like this forever?

Hi,
This is a tricky question. the cause for the breasts to develop is the hormonal change.
I advise you to get your androgen, estrogen, testosterone levels checked. The development can be delayed in a few individuals as it may be in your case. but get tested with a gynecologist, and also check your hormone levels....
Would like to know if your menstrual cycle is correct.
