I think I was a little unclear. I’ve already been fitted for a prosthetic and am very happy with it. I don’t want to wear it straight on the skin because its sweaty that way and I’m worried about it falling out of my normal bras if there’s no pocket.
I tried a bunch of bras at Leila O’Toole and ACTE3 in balmain - they all have ‘side boob’ issues that I don’t like and all tend to be fuller coverage cups and would show in a fair bit of my wardrobe (not that low cut or anything). Neither store stocks any underwire mastectomy bras at all - such a thing barely exists. I figure it’s cheaper to alter bras I know fit and are comfortable and work with my wardrobe. I also only bought a bunch of the bras in the last six months when the plan was for me to have a lumpectomy - then chemo stopped working and two weeks later I had a mastectomy.
thank you for the resources I will be sure to check them out.
