It caught my attention, I had mine removed by nature. First testosterone. Instead of the 1% drop /year it went to zero to 12 in a few months. Did not feel good. The the E 2 levels went up in response ( aromatase). The gynecomastia came on quick. Then the Ca++ levels went up& a parathyroidoma manifested. Surgery fixed  that . Then a small lactation event started. It was followed by a ‘let down’ sensation in public. Got a lot of head scratching by my doctors. Then a Prolactinoma was found. 2 mm size. My investigation into academia’s deep library recesses led me down a rabbit of Endocrine mystery. It’s called MEN Syndrome. I found the doctors highly resistant to the suggestion. It’s “too rare”. Got a new Endocrinologist and moved on to genetic testing. Found a mutated gene that’s associated with breast cancer. Mammograms have so far been negative. The last I read in the Type 4 said it’ usually manifests late in life an has a propensity to indolently involve the gonads.’ Yep sure enough the aches proved to be lesions on Ultrasound and they had to go. So nature removed some hormones and surgeons removed a few more. 
The word removed caught my attention.

I got lost in translation, haha
No, they weren't removed.
My hormones were normal. That's an enigma. Why do I have feminization of the body, including breast growth, and my hormones are normal? True, my testosterone was in the lower half of normal. But the results are still considered normal.

Taxmapper do you swoop and scoop your breast tissue into the cups? I am quite shallow and wide set but I'm able to manipulate my breast tissue such that I'm now often professionally fitted into a 34DD.  The more you do this the easier it is to mobilise breast tissue to where it needs to be. I genuinely belive that I have experienced tissue migration over the last 12 months.

Boy do we follow a similar path. Just had a root canal.

I worked 17 years in downtown Seattle, man that place changed & not for the better.

I am the odd man out here but what you have described is a flag for an astute observer. (This doesn’t include my doctors). On your next lab draw I would encourage you to get your practitioner to include a prolactin level.

I became a unicorn with this MEN Syndrome & the Prolactinoma part of this is exactly what you have described. I am NOT saying you have MEN Syndrome but a forum I follow on Prolactinoma has cued  me in on that these are more common than previously thought and are overlooked frequently by healthcare providers. If and when the level comes elevated the common response is likely to be (‘it’s a fluke, due to stress, exercise, or direct stimulation’.)  A sequence of these exams will reveal the true nature if it is a problem.

I fleshed out a significant amount on top when the adenoma was found to be present in me.

True taxmapper.
Measuring is one thing, and the size of the bra itself is another.
CHAT gpt was able to explain it to me nicely. He also mentioned that in these situations you should look for bras that are adapted for wider breasts and offered me several brands :)

I'm looking at my topic that I shyly opened more than 5 years ago where I was looking for an answer regarding my potential gynecomastia. At that time, I was still insecure about myself and slowly started to accept my condition. As time went on, my breasts got bigger and bigger. And I was more and more proud of them. So much so that I took phytoestrogens for a while. The result was that my already slightly feminized body became even more feminized. My breasts reached a size 42 D. It didn't stop there, but changes also occurred in the genital area. A person who knows me well, and is a medical professional, is persuading me to have a medical examination, because my changes are atypical and quite strong considering that I haven't taken any synthetic hormones like HRT. This person suspects that I have some kind of intersex variant that a medical examination should confirm or reject. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised, because since childhood and puberty I haven't felt like I'm fully a man, but that there's something more to it. Things that weren't typical for men, but were present in me, are: little or almost no body hair, mild gynecomastia, a feminine body build, I don't have a pronounced Adam's apple, a delicate build, and weak muscle development. Despite going to the gym for many years, my muscle development didn't change much. Not even with adequate nutrition. Something in my body blocked me from being at least approximately a man. And what's most interesting, 4 years ago I had my hormones removed and they were even normal, which is a total enigma. That's why I should go for a different examination, such as a more detailed blood hormonal test, karyotype, and ultrasound of the abdomen and testicles.

That's where I'll end my post for now. And below I'm posting a photo from today that shows how much progress I've :)

So I want to place this in for a moment and poss. in the future so everyone can figure this out. 

The cup size conundrum is clear to everyone. All women have this issue and men too. 
But, consider this:  I am 50.25+/- on the bust and now 42-43 on the band. This clearly puts me into D territory, yet can barely fill a B cup.. Why?   

Wide chest and wide gore. The distance between the nipps is about 11" and this means that the boobs themselves are wider apart. With the amount of actual mass sorta fills a B cup, the distance on the chest means they are farther apart but less volume, yet goes to D+ range based on the metric.   In reality if closer together say a chest of less than 40, in the 36-38 range with this much volume would probably put me into the C range. Closer to actual. 

So measure the distance between the two to get the right fill.

Thanks Busty
Yes, when I stand my breasts are raised and in certain shirts it looks like I'm wearing a bra.
There is a crease and it's quite visible, but when I stand my breasts don't drop below it. When I sit down, it's all different... my breasts immediately drop and have a much larger volume. The root of my breasts is wider, so they don't project as deep.
That's a mitigating circumstance for me, especially on the beach.
I throw my shoulders out a lot, I pull myself up, so that my breasts project as little as possible. Those are some tricks
As for the body, you noticed it right.
My breasts aren't the only thing on me that's typical of a woman. There's also a build that's almost completely feminized. Narrow shoulders, breasts, narrow waist and wider hips. So it's noticeable even when I wear men's clothes. That's why I buy regular models of clothes. So my build is noticeable even then.
