Prosthetics slipping in bras
Hi Everyone, I've haven't been on this site since January after my double mastectomy. Dealing with the healing, I also lost my husband in April and haven't felt like doing anything or seeing many...
Hi Christina
I am so sad to hear of your loss on top of everything BC related.
If you are fitted properly the prosthesis should not move - BUT the bra does have to be TIGHT to keep all in place (and that in itself can cause Lymphoedema). Did a professional trained fitter suggest a specific bra and fakies ?
Be yourself and go 'a la natural' if you are comfortable with that. (Wishing I'd known about a double at the time !).
Hugs Summer :-)
