I'm about ten months into hrt, and ordered my first, 38a.  I'm hoping it's the right size, but ordered a tape measure too.  When I was younger I wore a 36 short suit jacket.  Then I got heavier.  My 38 suit jacket fits loose on me now.  I know you are asking why do I still have a suit.  It's the only one I saved for just in case things.

you know how far the universe extends outward? i think i go inside just as deep.

11/6/17 - came out to sister, best day of my life
9/5/17 - formal diagnosis and stopping DIY in favor if prescribed HRT
6/18/17 - decided to stop fighting the trans beast, back on DIY.
Too many ups and downs, DIY, purges of self inbetween dates.
Age 10 - suppression and denial began
Age 8 - knew I was different

when I reached an A cup which was about 1 month into HRT.
Aargh, I am so jealous!  It took me the better part of a year to reach an A, and I am still there.  :'(

I'm right there with you KathyLauran:). Yes, I'm envious too.  If I reach a B I will be sooooo happy.  I many remain an A though.

I don't know if I'm an A yet, probably, but I'd wear a sports bra at least to cover the nipples poking out. I get that always even if I'm not even cold. I think a push up bra would be a good idea, but like you Bari Jo, I just don't feel ready yet to go for a bra fitting.
I'm praying and wishing for a B at least too. A C cup would be ideal...

I go free most days, I only wear a bra on days that I wish to feel especially girly, or if I have a shirt where my pokies are too obvious for the office.

I wear a bra every day.  I'm a 38A.  One thing I've noticed is my bra seems a bit fuller since I started on  dutasteride a little over a year ago.  A few weeks ago, I was surprised to see how much they were sticking out, when I saw myself in a mirror.

Hopefully, they'll continue to grow, as dutasteride can cause gynecomastia.  It's also often paired with estrogen for trans women.
I'm a 65 year old male who has been thinking about SRS for many years.  I also was a  full cross dresser for a few years.  I wear a bra, pantyhose and nail polish daily because it just feels right.

Started HRT April 17, 2019.

"If you can place a pencil horizontally underneath your breast and let go of the pencil and it stays there tucked under the breast then for sure it is time for a bra." 

I guess I need a bra then.

I got sent home from work once for not wearing one. Since then I don't leave home without one
