Take a soft tape measure and measure around your body where your bra band sits on your body.

Make sure the tape is even all around your body and not hanging down in back. When you take this measurement, round to the closest whole inch either up or down.

If the rounded measurement you come up with is an even number, add 4″.

If the rounded measurement you come up with is an odd number, add 5″.

If measurement is less than 33″:

- Add 5″ if measurement is an odd number

- Add 4″ if measurement is an even number If measurement is 33″ to less than 38″:

- Add 3″ if measurement is an odd number

- Add 4″ if measurement is an even number If measurement is 38″ or more:

- Add between 0″ to no more than 2″ (to reach an even number) The correct cup size.

- Measure from the center of the chest around the fullest area of the natural breast to the center of the back.

- Take that measurement times 2.

- If this measurement is:

the same or up to 1″ larger than the bra size is A cup

  • 1″-2″ larger than the bra size is B cup
  • 2″-3″ larger than the bra size is C cup
  • 3″-4″ larger than the bra size is D cup
  • 4″-5″ larger than the bra size is DD cup

Most women choose to wear an external breast form after surgery  because it is a comfortable and natural looking way to restore symmetry without further surgery.

Silicone breast forms can be formulated to imitate the softness and response of natural breast tissue. Also, silicone gel is nearly the same density a as the natural breast. That means a breast form of the same size would nearly be the same weight as a remaining breast.

Seamless Molded / T-Shirt Bra

Co-CEO Jay Markowitz says, “Our slogan for our bras is ‘You didn’t want to wear your Grandma’s underwear before you had breast surgery, either.’American Breast Care (ABC) was the first to produce bras that breast cancer survivors can wear that are strapless, seamless and t-shirt

The T-Shirt Bra Collection is the first seamless, molded-cup bra for post-mastectomy women introduced in the market. What makes the bra so appealing is that it is invisible under clothing allowing for it to work well under t-shirts, knits and sweaters.

The Seamless Strapless Bra allows post-mastectomy women to wear halters, off-the shoulder sweaters, spaghetti straps and tank tops. This bra is another first for ABC in the marketplace because it is the first seamless, strapless bra made for women after mastectomy and it took three years to engineer the bra.

The Wireless T-Shirt Bra is another staple in the bra industry because it is a seamless, molded, microfiber bra with wide straps for comfort.

With our experience and our willingness to hear what our market is demanding, we spent countless hours coming up with the right bras to help women lead fuller lives after breast surgery. Life goes on, and we want to help them live their lives to the fullest.”
