    Does anyone know what the current criteria for qualifying for breast reduction are public or on the VHI particularly in relation to BMI? I’m seeing various answers online from 25-30. I fit all other criteria (back pain etc) but I’m working on the BMI and the pain is actually getting worse as I size down and my chest hasn’t!

    If you're going through the public health system, you'll need to be referred by your doctor then expect a wait of minimum a year. I'm currently on the list for a reconstruction and reduction. I've been told they want BMI below 30 and will probably tell me to lose weight anyway as the lower the weight the lower the surgery risks
