Had breast implants previously, saline D cup. One ruptured so I took them both out. I also went through pregnancy and breast fed. Now, my chest is mismatched. I don’t mind my right breast, but really dislike the left one as it’s deflated and my nipple is lower than the right. I’m not sure if I want to deal with implants again.
