I feel stupid for this but I'm really self conscious about my boobs. My husband doesn't have any complaints and I really shouldn't but I'm pushing a D cup. I was a 34 B when I filled out after puberty which I was fine with but five years ago I was diagnosed with a probable pituitary microadenoma and hyperprolactinemia. The latter made my boobs leak and it leaks or can be expressed from the left one. I know some women have it a whole lot worse but I see them in the mirror and I just think they are hideous. I can't wear v neck tops because they make me feel exposed and my mom told me to stop wearing cardigans or shawls over those tops as she thought there wasn't an issue. I think the anxiety is that people will stare at them or not listen to me because oh look, boobs! I haven't been in that situation but I keep them under sweatshirts because I don't want to. Ugh, I know this sounds incredibly stupid but there are days I really hate them and wish they would stay in my bra out of sight and out of mind. Rant over.

I hear you there. What helped me with similar problems is to find my right size bra (i can direct you to a great group on Reddit) and to wear full coverage minimizers. You do not have to wear anything that makes you uncomfortable. You're fabulous and your boobs are too!

I’d be happy to have Ds. I wear F or FF or sometimes could EE and I am petite, not a big woman. Not only it’s impossible to find right fitting clothes, people stare . I envy women with small breasts. Life is easier

So far I'm going to try and lose some weight (husband and I are back on the wagon because he's been snoring), try to drink less and invest in a minimized bra. Thank you!

Just an update, I went to Victoria's Secret yesterday and figured a bra fitting might be good. I did it because I thought they were smaller and maybe I was overreacting. Nope. 34DD. First time I left VS embarrassed (they were nice about it thank goodness). I am going to try and get back with my endocrinologist to see if that Will fix it.

Why were you embarrassed? The size is just a letter. It can vary per brand or even in different models of bras.
34DD isn't enormous. I'm a bigger size than that and I've never experienced people staring or not listening to what I say. Also, I think V necks are actually flattering for a larger chest. Of course you don't want them too low, but as long as they still cover everything up they'll make your chest look smaller. |
