Wearing a bra tha fits well can help you feel more confident but unfortunately many women wear bras that are the wrong size or shape for them. Following breast surgery it can be difficult to know what to look for in a bra - our guide is here to help you find a well fitting bra.
- A new bra should fit well on the loosest set of hooks so that as it begins to stretch over time, you can tighten it and still get a good fit.
- If you have had one of your breasts completely removed (mastectomy), the bra needs to be a good fit for your natural breast. If you are planning to wear a prosthesis you will need a bra that is not too low cut, otherwise the prosthesis will show above the top edge.
- If you have had both breasts removed (a bilateral mastectomy) and you are going to be wearing two prostheses, you can choose the bra cup size you want to be. You will need to adjust the straps so that the bra cups are about halfway between elbow height and your shoulder.
- Your breast care nurse or prostheses fiter can check your bra to see it it fits well and is sutable to use with a prosthesis. If you don't have a suitable bra, you'll find it helpful to be properly measured and fitted before buying a new one.
- A well fitted bra should not feel too tight or too loose and the strap across the back should not dig in.
- Your natural breast(s) should fill the cup of the bra without bulging over the top or out the sides over the bra fabric.
- The shoulder straps shouldn't carry the full weight of your breasts or prosthesis, should stay in place when you lift your arms above your head, and fit closely to your body without cutting in.
