Breast implants

[KarenLyn]

No way. I find the idea of it gross. Bags of gel inside you? Ewww.

If I had zero development I'd consider it but I've hit a small 34B in 7 months HRT and I'm fine with that, I don't feel a need to look like a pornstar.

And a ba makes you look like a pornstar? Only if that's what you tell the doc you want to look like that.

Since you live in America, you should consider the tuba method where they place the implants through your belly button.

it'd make me look like a pornstar, I'm very narrow. I just don't get the desire to have big boobs. having them is enough.

[KarenLyn]

I don't want Big breasts either, but I do want to be better proportioned.

[KarenLyn]

And I'm completely envious of people like Mawd who are so tiny. A 34B! I'm a 46 and when you start figuring out cup sizes, I end up like 46AAA. I'd like to have them go in and take an inch from each rib on both sides. Right now I go to a specialty shop and get mastectomy bras. Oh well. I was fortunate in that I have a nice voice and don't have an Adam's apple. 
I'm done whining now

The weird thing is that I look allot bigger than I really am, I have massive shoulder blades but my bra strap sits just below them where I'm all of a sudden really thin for about 6" until you hit my tummy and hip bone.

Still, I can't complain I got extremely lucky with things, right now the only thing I hate about my body is below my tummy and above my thighs, that whole area sucks.

I'm sure that's true for lots of us.

I really don't know if I would get breast augmentation. I think I'd be more then satisfied with a C-cup and even a B-cup. My frame isn't that large (I'm approximately 38 bust, actually 37 and a half, but close enough right?)

If I remained flat I'd probably go for it after the initial breast growth from hormone therapy was done, or if I had small A's maybe, but I really just want breasts. They don't need to be big. And more then a C would hurt my poor back.

I'd really prefer whatever is under my bra to be all me too, but if I need to get ba to be comfortable, then I probably would.

[Kimberly]

Meh.
I have been on HRT for roughly 1 year, 6 months, 27 days and I have.... uh. er. Well, I would be happy if I could say I was an A cup, does that count? ^{*sighs and shrugs*} I really do not want a BA, but I want to be (functionally) flat even less.

^*smirk* A lot of things are like that, the lesser of evils. Go figure.

Hi everyone,


I answered yes to the poll question. Simply becuase of the fact that I have breast implants. I chose to get breast implants because I wanted to boost my self confidence as a woman. And I think I did just that. The ma'ams Come very easily and frequently at this point. I absolutely love my new breasts. My 1st BA was May 12, 06. Which brought me from a AA to a Full 36C. With hormone usage, That ultimately grew to a Mid 36D. I have another upcoming BA May 15, 07. Hoping to take me from a mid 36D to a Full 36DD. EVerything is already bought and paid for. Just awaiting pre - op. Like everyone says, There are risks and trade offs. Just remember one thing that will ultimately be your outcome. YOU HAVE TO DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!!!!

Don't worry about price. Otherwise the age old issue of you getting what you pay for springs forth.


Hope this helps.

yes, because im [underdeveloped]! is there any other reason why a woman would want  a breast augmentation?

[stephb]

I would get implants when the time comes. Having waited so late in life to take any steps to deal with my GID, I need all the help and self-confidence I can get. Unfortunately, I still have a long way to go before breast implants are my top concern.

Cool, good luck.  I hope you are pleased with your results.

[ellen b]

I don't need implants. I took hormones long enough to have "perky" little breasts, and am more than pleased with that.

Ask me again when I'm 57!

I don't think I want them -- with 8 months of HRT so far, my natural breasts have grown pretty fast and seem to match my frame. I'm an A cup, but I'm starting to get to the point that I'm going to have to look for a B cup bra.

One of the things I hate are those bra calculators -- they don't work for at all. So I just go into the store and try the bras on and see what fits and so on. I once tried doing the calculator-  and different ones online will all say different things -- I've had ones say that I have no breasts -- yeah right -- to ones saying I'm a 40 C -- way to big! Anyway, long story short, it didn't work. 36 A seems to work, and pretty soon 36 B. I once tried putting on the calculated recommendations, and the bra just fell off!

My girlfriend (a GG girl) tried it too, and they were way off.

Anyway, enough of my rant about those online calculators.

is there any other reason why a woman would want  a breast augmentation?

Breast cancer, reconstruction of breasts due to an accident, amongst other things.

[Ms Bev]

I voted no.  Mostly, the notion of destroying any amount of healty tissue does not sound like a good idea, especially if the actual glandular tissue becomes damaged.  Scarring, adhesions, hard breasts or parts within.  I find smallish breasts very attractive, and the quest for the "D" cup is shoved down our throats by the various media, telling us what is not only the ideal, but what is considered by them to be normal.

My breasts have been growing for 2 1/4 yrs, and at the moment, are a b-cup in a size 40, or a c-cup in a size 38.  Marcy loves them just as they are, even though the left breast is 1/2 cup size smaller than the right.  If the rule of thumb is correct, that at my age, I can expect to be a cup size or so smaller than my closest female relatives, then I should end up a 40 c.  We'll see.  The important thing here, is that I now inhabit a female body, which coincides nicely with my female brain.
What more could a transwoman want?  That's all I ever wanted......to have my outside match my inside.

Anyway, that's my 2 bits, for what it's worth.

it depends for me, on how i develop

I have spent much time think about BA and decided that it is not for me.  During many discussions with my therapist I have arrived that looking as natural as possible is my ultimate goal.  I really want friends and family to know that this is a personal journey for me to find happiness and I feel that BA would cheapen that.  Like the only reason I am going through all of this is to "look" like a woman not be one.  People come in all shapes and sizes.
