Breast cancer underwear

Hi Pinkyann and anyother 1.5 boob owners…
I too have 1.5 breasts due to a not as yet finished recon (awaiting rads etc before implant - my choice) I am wearing my ordinary bras with one of those ‘stickon’ bras designed for no straps tops. I’ve now backed it with fabric (cut up a cotton hankie) and just pop it over the recon side - I too have the cleavage curve of my breast, so can do low cut, But I have to be careful as recon side is not very pliable yet and just kind of sits there in a jordanesque fashion (not that size - just the texture!)
I bought my stick ons a few years ago in the pound shop - I bought 3 at the time so now hav effectively have 6 potential ‘prosthesis’… you can buy them cheaply in Matalan & last summer tesco did thme. Also seen them in Debenhams - they’re cheaper that chicken fillets at around £7 - a bargain, I think!
I remain p’d off that I cant wear my underwired bras. My consultant has said that no women should wear underwires - but a) I notice she does & b) she has little boobs so doesn’t even have that pressing need that some better endowed people do! With my underwire ones, the recon side looks rediculous as it doesn’t mould to the bra!!

nothing wrong with underwired bras, I think some surgeons are just puritanical. If you wear the right size they are fine. Another option is to remove the underwire from one or both sides and wear the same bra without

Hey -I’m back to the underwires Mole!! Much better look!

good, I really think you should take some of the pronouncements of doctors with a large pinch of salt - unless they are backed up by randomised controlled trials of course
