How to Find the Right Bra Size After Mastectomy
- (A) The Bands Size - measure around the chest directly underneath the breast where the bra band sits. Make sure the measuring tape stays at the same height in the front and back.
- (B) The Cup Size - measure the middle of the chest over the fullest part of the remaining breast. Double this number to get the overbust measurement.
