I am a full 36C after two years HRT. I have recently become very perky and pointy again which means another nice growth spurt is underway (lots of new growth pain too). And in recent weeks they have become quite heavy and bouncy (much more than before). I am closeted and always will be, so I can hardly hide these things anymore. I would like for them to stop growing now, but I am afraid of becoming a D before the year is done. I have reached my target. I'm happy with that. Still, I've said a million times (and heard it from others), with HRT be careful what you wish for.....

large enough to balance out my waist hips, but not so large that I'm completely top heavy and dwarf my overall body type.

Breast size is less important than my overall appearance.  I have a fairly slender hips. I can easily get out of proportion, and draw more attention to myself than I'd be comfortable with.  The best case would be to fit into most of the clothes off the rack without having to tailor everything.  Saves money and hassle...

Hi @Shambles 🙋‍♀️ I only had a little extra weight when I started hrt and my band measurement was 37".  I lost some weight, but gained it back.... in different places.  My band size is now 36" after 8 months.

Hop Scotch anyone?

QuoteYour ribcage is bone.  I cannot change that size.
For some women, there is fat in the bra strap area which pads on top of the ribs, making the ribcage size larger.  When I do liposuction of the back and axillary roll (these are all the areas which are under your bra line), I can reduce this ribcage size by removing the overlying fat.  This is a common occurrence in many of my breast reduction patients.  As an example, when I do a breast reduction, I may drop someone from a 40 —> 38 or even a 36.

QuoteIn the study of Dittrich et al. [22], 60 trans women were treated with GnRH analogs and estradiol valerate 6 mg daily. Seventy percent of them wished to undergo augmentation mammoplasty as they found their breast size too small after 24 months of hormonal therapy. Only 35 percent of trans women in their group had a B cup (mean difference of 14–16 cm between circumference at the nipple and circumference just below the breast) or more, 35% had an A cup (mean difference of 12–14 cm), and 30% had less than an A cup after 2 years of cross-sex hormone therapy.

I'm a petite thyng pushing a 36B. They look great on me. If growth stopped today I'd be a happy camper, but that soreness is back telling me it looks like another growth spurt is coming up.
