What type of breasts do I have? (tubular, flat, wide, low, saggy, etc.?) (photos)

Question

If you were to look at my breasts, what size do they look like? I'm a 32 around the ribcage but do they look like an A, B, or C cup? I'm confused because I fit into both 32B and 32C. Also, when I lean/bend forward, my breasts get very pointy and tubular like, does that mean I have tubular breasts? My nipples are pretty puffy most of the time as well. Also, are my breasts considered low or saggy? Is the reason my imfammary fold isnt defined because my breasts arent big enough?

Thank you for your photographs and questions.  Breast appearance (size, shape, nipple position/size, areola dimensions) exists along a very wide spectrum of normal.  Based on your pictures you have very attractive breasts that are proportional to your frame and which are not tuberous.  I would not concern yourself on what exact cup size you are as each bra manufacturer will have different measurements that constitute an A cup, B cup, C cup, etc.  Best idea is to get properly measured for each bra you buy to ensure that it supports you appropriately.  Lastly, you do have a defined breast crease, due to your size, however your breast tissue does not overhang your crease making it appear less defined.  Hope this helps

Thank you for your question and photos.  No, you do not appear to have tubular breasts nor are they saggy or low.  The location of your inframammary fold seems to be clear as well.  If you are looking to augment your breasts, please see a board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL

You look fine so do not be concerned. All breasts are a bit different. You can relax and not do anything. Should you ever desire breast implants you are in good shape.

Thanks for the inquiry.  Your breasts are "normal".  Cup sizes are variable from manufacturer to the next.  I would guess that you are closer to a B cup.  Your breasts are not tubular.  Good luck and be safe.John T. Nguyen, MD, FACS, FICSDouble Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Based on your pictures, your breasts look pretty normal - not tuberous or saggy at all.  You have pretty well defined folds, and it is normal for the breasts to get a little more "pointy" when bending forward.  You are also pretty symmetrical.  As far as cup size, to me you appear to be in the B range of cup sizes.  All the bras are different, which is why you can wear different sizes, but your actual breast tissue is in the B range.  I hope this helps.

You have perfectly normal yet somewhat small breasts.  Cup sizes can vary widely from manufacturer so you shouldn't get too worried about the exact cup size your breasts are, but rather what you would like them to look like.  Your IMF is defined but you have no droopiness of your breasts so that is why you don't see it more clearly.  If you are thinking about an augmentation, you would be a great candidate.  Best of luck!

Robert S. Houser, DO · Answer

There is truly NOTHING wrong with you.  You have small breasts.  A B cup.  Bra manufactures don't follow one standard for cup sizes, so that's why you fit in to some B's and some C's.  The fold is not harsh because your breasts do not sag on to your upper abdomen.  That comes with either a larger breast (full C or bigger) or a sagging breast after pregnancy, weight loss, or some congenital breast deformities.  You look great.  If you wanted to be a little fuller, go for it -- but don't do it because you think there is something wrong with you.  If you do it, don't go too big.

You have normal young breasts.  It is not uncommon to have variation in cup size fits.  You are clinically medium B cup.  That fits your body.  Size otherwise is a personal preference.  You can enlarge their size with breast augmentation if you want to be larger. It is your choice and preference.

Thank you for your inquiry and the photos.  It appears that you have very normal breast development and the creases are actually present and normal in position.  In regards to cup size, there is unfortunately no standard in Bra Cup sizing which varies for each manufacturer.  I would expect that you are an A+ oarsman B cup based on the photos, but it really depends on which bra you select.Your breast development is fairly symmetric and if you desire enhancement in size you would be a good candidate for the procedure.Best Wishes

Peter E. Johnson, MD · Answer

Your breast is normal in shape and proportion and is natural and attractive. Bra fit we would estimate a 34 B. A 32 bra can be very hard to find and the selection is limited though a 32 C might work out for you as well. The relative cup size changes as the chest diameter increases, the larger the chest the smaller the cup given the same breast volume. Your breast will change with age, weight gain, pregnancy and right now things are pretty perfect. Enjoy.
