My boobs seem weird.

I've been on HRT for almost 14 months now, and I have had a pretty good amount of breast development. I went to Victoria's Secret to get sized again in December, and they said I was a 34C. I do fill out their 34C bras pretty well, and I'm quite capable of making some cleavage with the right pushup bra. However, my boobs aren't shaped the way I thought they would be. When I'm not wearing a bra, my boobs have pretty limited shape or definition. From the side, they look pretty much like boobs, but from the front, it's almost like I just have a fatty chest.

I have had pretty much no sexual interaction in my life and I don't watch or look at porn, so I have a very limited sense of what boobs are supposed to look like. I always assumed they were supposed to be kind of round or stick out more than mine do. Mine are more like quasi-shapeless bags of fat on my chest with a little bit of firmness inside.

I'd just like to say that I'm not super dysphoric about my boobs. I like having them, I like wearing bras, and in a lot of cases, they seem alright to me. I'm just not sure if this is how they're "supposed" to look. Is this what boobs are like on cis women? Are trans women's boobs just different? Could this be something that will improve over time? Help?

Fourteen months is still early. I am a similar size after 14 months 38D, and I sare many of your concerns, although I have (ahem) seen a few boobs in my day.

I just think they still have some filling out to do and some sagging to happen.

Remember, you have the boobs of a teenage girl right now. They are still developing. We tend to only see adult breasts if we grew up as a male, so perhaps that too is why they may seem weird.

The first couple (Tanner) stages of development show the breasts are usually a cone shape, without the rounded bottom half like they are "supposed" to have. Cis-women with small breasts have the same problem.

Give it some time, 2-3 years or so.

Developing boobs do have a mind of their own when it comes to shape. If you're looking for a better shape maybe a different bra will help? Also, trans women tend to have larger chests/rib cages so even though they may be a C or B or D or whatever they will never quite have the same look as genetic women with corresponding bra sizes due to them having slimmer chests.

I have 48 B/C breasts...my ex was 48 DD. I think mine are better! Definitely more firm and shapely! And quite adequate for play!  ;)

(In all fairness, she nursed our 3 kids...)

As others have said 14 months is like nothing for breast development. You have to keep perspective on the physical changes especially breast maturity cause cis women have practically almost a decade of breast development before they hit their 20s. When they're pre adolescent, their bodies start producing tiny amounts of estrogen so by the time they reach their first period they're already past the 1st stage of the tanner scale usually. So when you think about it for us trans women even a few years of hrt isn't much at all either. Our bodies are undergoing a serious change and fat redistribution and loss of muscle mass also contribute to how your breasts will look. The first few years of hrt is like the shock period of your body adjusting to estrogen after all of those years being on T. 

I'm about to reach my 3 year mark in march and I'm in a whole new phase of breast growth. You will eventually get past that teenage boob stage if you're on estrogen long enough, however idk if age has a factor in that.

I wouldn't trust victoria secret's bra measurement since they don't measure properly.
