Acceptance Garments / Re: Do you wear prostheses?
« Last post by 42CSurprise! on Yesterday at 12:35:02 PM »I'm pretty sure that if I didn't have breasts I wouldn't wear Prosthetics.I have a dear friend who knows I've worn a brassiere at times in my life but who doesn't know about my breast development. She had a mastectomy, removing one of her breasts, many years ago and for a very long time didn't wear a prosthetic breast or a brassiere. She was very voluptuous beginning at an early age and I get the sense all the attention she received was distressing. She was content to dress so her chest was hidden, but she also gained a great deal of weight. I met her as she was losing that weight. Last year she decided to explore wearing a brassiere and being fitting for a silicone prosthesis. Recently she moved to a larger city and bought a new collection of brassieres with a much better form. I don't know what this has been all about for her but she looks great. Interesting to think about what I would do if I lost one breast through a mastectomy. Perhaps I'd have them both removed. Perhaps I'd get a prosthetic...
The exception might be if I had a single Masectomy, then I might wear one on one side to even the girls out...

Gynecomastia Talk / Re: Cancer: The why you really need to be screened.
« Last post by WPW717 on April 22, 2026, 03:28:54 PM »That’s a real serious history of familial cancer.
Don’t know if you have had any genetic testing, it may be worth it. I used Invitae for mine. Especially for the HER , BRCA & CHEK genes.
The gynecomastia & the history are a red flag for you.
Stay strong my friend.

For best fit and shaping choose 3 section cups ideally with side support to centre the bust. The vertical seam is the one that provides the lift. However seams and also nipples can show through some shirts with these styles.

I had always preferred seamless unlined cups but was surprised that I liked the Warners molded foam cups and wear them often. They do not add much at all to projection but do contribute to shaping.
For traveling, the unlined cups pack better with less bulk and handle sweat build up better during a busy day, often drying out better on their own as the day progresses. It is not as easy to change bras out during a day of travel.

« Last post by Justagirl💃 on April 22, 2026, 09:47:27 AM »Doctors always want to assume it's a cyst first, sometimes they find out too late it's not.
I get a mammogram every year since 1989. Many of those years I didn't have insurance and paid out of pocket.

« Last post by taxmapper on April 22, 2026, 09:43:31 AM »The seeking help is not so easy at times. The syndrome I have ( MEN ) is not known to have breast cancer associated with it. I do possess a CHEK 2 mutation that is known to cause cancer. I have had colon cancer already. This puts me at the forefront for suspicion of breast cancer.Thanks:
It’s nearly impossible to get a doc to order a mammogram & when one did the radiologist over rode him and canceled it. To them it’s more important to not violate Medicare rules. All this despite the NCCN Guidelines that state the condition should have yearly mammos.
I have written my sister about this as there is a 50% chance of her getting the same genetic disease and included a letter to her doctor for her to carry.
She is displaying symptoms now & choosing to ignore them. I am concerned she is failing to grasp the issue.
The need to stay on these health issues is paramount. TAX, I hope your docs are more concerned than the ones I have seen in the past. Regretable news re you sister & the emotional fires this light in your life are very draining for you. Stay strong & my prayers are with you.
I know that you'll understand this, but here is the lates I sent to the doc.:
On the Maternal side:
One of my cousins.
Invasive carcinoma with mixed ductal and lobular features, ER+, HER2-, lymph node 0+ Treatment consisted of lumpectomy followed by 20 sessions of radiation, no chemotherapy required, currently on an aromatase inhibitor for 5+ years.
My Aunt
Waldenström macroglobulinemia and she was diagnosed in the spring of 2001, so she would have been 72 when diagnosed. She died in Feb. 2025.
Grandfather had lung cancer, a smoker aggravated by Mustard gassing in WWI, he died in 1959, was born in 1887, so died at 72, no idea when diagnosed.
Sister diagnosed with a breast cancer March 2026. 6x4 cm, upper right lymph node area. Was felt for approx. 4 years, thought of as a cyst. (The readings from my cousin and sister are near identical.
Mother: Passed in March 1996 from stroke aggravated by emphysema and decades of smoking.
Paternal side:
Father and grandfather passed after strokes.
Father died in 2004 at 79.
Grandfather passed in 1976, age unknown. Poss. upper 70's.Grandmother died from renal failure also late 70's.

Acceptance Garments / Re: Bra reviews
« Last post by Justagirl💃 on April 22, 2026, 08:28:49 AM »There’s one part that doesn’t seem right about band size:That's right, I didn't catch that when I pasted the text into the site.
Determine Band Size: Round up odd numbers to the next whole number or add 4 inches to even numbers to find your band size.
As i read it, if my under bust measurement is 41, i would round up to 42. (Sounds good) But if my under bust is 40 i would add 4 to get to 44?
Why wouldn’t I just go with 40 or add 2 to get to 42?
Thanks in advance.

« Last post by Parity on April 22, 2026, 08:21:09 AM »However you want to classify a bra with padding, there’s times I enjoy the breasts being a bit fuller and so I’ll wear a padded bra. I also don’t have a problem with adding an enhancer on one side if it helps even out the look in some of the bras I wear since my one breast is smaller than the other.I did that two years ago to even them out. At that time one was 1/2 to 3/4's of a cup size smaller. They have balanced out and I no longer have the need.
