If you could choose your breast size- what size would you be?

I had a mastectomy a few years ago now need to get another one and I can't have reconstruction for a year.
Anyway on a lighter note I get to choose 2 new prosthesis in any size I want!
I've always been rather large so was thinking of going down from an F to a C/D?
If you could choose your size what would you choose?

I went up to a 32DD when I breastfed and have stayed at 32D ever since (20 years!).

I'd love to be a 32C which is what I was before, or even smaller wouldn't bother me as long as they remain firm and perky.

I'm an A and have always wanted to be bigger. I do quite like feeling small and neat and not having to worry about what tops I wear as I get older though. Ideal would be a C I think but to remain petite elsewhere!

I've always been an A cup. When breastfeeding I couldn't get a nursing bra with small enough cups (no shortage of milk though, I could easily have fed twins). I don't need much support and can still get shape. No drooping.

I'm perfectly happy with being this size, never yearned for big breasts. Had breast cancer 4 years ago and was very thankful for small size then.

34B or 34C, currently 38D and dislike it.

Cup sizes are meaningless unless we know your back size. An ‘F’ cup can be small or large depending on the back size.

Exactly. I am a 28FF and they really aren’t that big. I’m happy with them as they are.

Dubaibutwhy · 06/05/2023 12:49

Happy with my C cups

MeanderingOnTheNorfolkBroads · 06/05/2023 12:49

I'd choose the size I have on my size 10 frame - a 34C.

I'm a 36 at the back. So maybe a 36C?
I'm hoping I'll feel comfortable boobless at home.

I was 36C before having kids and think it's the perfect size. I'm 38D now and my bras are more like boulder holders 😂

slashlover · 06/05/2023 13:06

I'm currently a 36J/36JJ, I'd be happy with an E or F.

halfsiesonapotnoodle · 06/05/2023 13:09

36E would be great.

QuickGuide · 06/05/2023 13:10

I'm practically flat chested and I've never wanted it any other way. I never need to give my bust any thought at all.

Booblessbeauty · 06/05/2023 13:12

the cup size is meaningless without the rest of it, you cant just be "B"- that is a whole range of different sizes

blibblibs · 06/05/2023 13:12

I'm 34F which really isn't big at all if the bra fits properly.
I would happily go up a few cup sizes without any issues.

QueefQueen80s · 06/05/2023 13:12

Big want to be little and little want boob jobs! I like having c/d.

Sorryyoufeelthatway · 06/05/2023 13:12

Smallish but perky 34B. Im 34D atm and they are uncomfortable.

Booblessbeauty · 06/05/2023 13:13

I dont know what size mine would be in real boob sizes, but the ones I have chosen are "tear drop" and the second smallest size, so small, but not very very small. They are also perter than my original droopy ones

Giselletheunicorn · 06/05/2023 13:18

A D-cup would suit me nicely. Am 36 GG and I hate it. Am at the age where they just look saggy and crap now.....

randomsabreuse · 06/05/2023 13:18

28F would be nice.

heatdeath · 06/05/2023 13:20

I’m 30E - given the choice I’d go for 30C, smaller the better imo.

lljkk · 06/05/2023 13:21

A or B cup.

Lostinwales77 · 06/05/2023 13:23

A or B.
I am a D but it's all chub as when I was thinner my boobs were smaller.
I hate boobs and bras 😬

TheOGCCL · 06/05/2023 13:23

Nothing over a C

Saschka · 06/05/2023 13:23

E. I’m a G. I remember being an E and it was big without being matronly. I have a small back though (32), so total boob size wasn’t massive. If I was a 36 or 38, I might say D.

TroysMammy · 06/05/2023 13:24

I'm an E. I would want to be a B.

Ollybob · 06/05/2023 13:27

Cup sizes means nothing at all, a D 34 D is different to a 40D.
Although I'm not a super strict follower of boob or bust/bravissimo their fitting method is so much better than the old add a 4/5 to your measurement under bust.
Currently I'm a 36 FF and a size 20, could do with a smaller body but my boobs are just right 😁
