does your shirt size change after top surgery?

[palexander]

pre-t i was a medium, but because i gained more muscle i had to go up to a large...primarily because my chest was sticking out too much for my liking. does anyone have experience with their shirt size changing?

*i was a DD but i may be a D right now. any input is great appreciated.

It did for me, but I always wore oversize shirts to help cover the fact that I had anything there. I'm now post-op and seem to be drowning in shirt material here...I need to go clothes shopping all over again. I seem to actually be a medium, not 2x.

thank you, frank
i'm going to order a medium...and the shirt is 70% white. this is really exciting!!

I think it depends on which is bigger for you - shoulders or chest. I'm still in the same size shirt because my shoulders are stupid big and only getting bigger due to lifting, which forced me to move up a size before surgery.

Mine did. Now I'm either a small or a medium I now have to try shirts on

Ten days out of surgery and I'm faced with having to buy a new wardrobe!!
I was large chested, at least a double d but I think bigger, and I've def gone down in shirt size!
It's pretty exciting actually

Before T I was a Small (way before that I did X-small).
When I started T I was wearing a Medium then about around a year and half I was wearing a large.
2 years on T and almost 3 months since my top surgery I am now back in Mediums. I like mediums now because I don't have the boobs to hide. I like being able to show off my more masculine chest. My weight has been fluctuating a lot over the past few months..so we'll see if I end up back in a large.

i attempted to put on a medium last night, but the arm holes felt too snug. having decent biceps can be a curse when it comes to sleeves lol.
i'll probably just stay a large, unless it's a loose medium...

I will chime in because I did get "top surgery" although it was of a different nature. It does apply to the question however. I went from a medium men's to a women's XL.

Don't you mean sky's out, thighs out?

[RaptorChops]

I like that too haha.

[itdisappears]

Mine hasn't yet because.. belly. I am now officially 1 month post-op so in another couple of weeks I can work out like I want to and I'm hoping I'll go down a shirt size.

[anibioman]

Stayed the same. Shirts were always too tight in the shoulders not the chest.

with where i live, i'd fit in perfectly.... lmao

[Aazhie]

Palexander ... how are you with a crossbow? XD  Yea, I can't say I'd be too dressed down if i just ripped up all my sleeves.  The dress code is pretty lax, wearing shoes is kind of a big deal for some people, lol

I went from a Medium to a Small. I was a C-cup pre-op.

I'm looking forward to this - got a lot of clothes that are currently too small and never been worn, pristine in the corner.
