Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

oops...almost forgot size!
went to get a few more bras (no underwire) and sport bras and i seem to be solid 34C/36C. i haven't tried any 32Ds yet...totally psychological block to even pick up anything with a "D" on it!! but i think 32D might make more sense compared to 36C which tends to have too large a frame strap for me. but sometimes 34C is just a tad small.
anyway, just goes to show you how different brands are! regardless i can wear flimsy no underwire bras so i am a happy camper!

hi all!
just wanted to give an update...will try for pics later this weekend. i'm doing REALLY well. Almost at the 9 week mark and started running last week...YIPPEE!!! I was cleared (with NO constraints) by my PS for all physical activity at 4 weeks but i took it slow. no need to compromise my recovery by doing too much too soon. so between week 4-8 i started slowly increasing my exercise level but only no-impact (cycling, hiking, walking). everything felt great but to be honest i was a bit paranoid!!
at 8weeks i made sure i bought some good sport bras and started slow. added a little trail running, then finally did a few road runs this week. everything is GREAT!
i have to say it is AMAZING to be moving my body again. i don't "notice" anything per se which is kinda the point...i just run and don't worry about rashes, trouble breathing (two bras really constraints your diaphragm!) etc. so i'm officially now in training for my trail 50km race in august. YAY!
i haven't started weight training again yet because i normally do that through sandbag class and there's still too much risk of the sandbag hitting my boobs with some of the movements. will start that end of june.
as for scars, everything is healing really well. the scars around the nipple are not visible at all and the vertical ones are really fine. the only areas that are a bit thicker is closer to the base of the vertical. i have no doubt those will soften over time. i continue to tape and massage and every 2-3 days give them "some air" and a nice full massage with coconut oil/cocoa butter.
shape is pretty much the same...but i'll try to post pictures later! i was really blessed that i had no bruising or swelling. i thank my amazing PS and also a very healthy diet.

hi all
took the tapes off to massage and moisturize and give them a breather for a few hours. took advantage by taking some pics. the scars are looking really great!
