Troubleshooting a poor fitting bra
Your band size may be too big. Try lifting your arms up to see if the band is tight enough. If it is riding up try going down a band size e.g. 36 to a 34. To keep the cup size the same you must go up a cup size e.g. 36C = 34D.
Band digs in around body or the band is overstretched
The band is too tight so try a bigger band size e.g. 34 to a 36. To keep the cup size the same you must go down a cup size e.g. 34C = 36B.
Shoulder straps are digging in
You may need to loosen the straps. If this does not work it may be that the under band is too big and the straps are giving you most of the support. The underband acts as 80% of the bra’s support so try going down a band size e.g. 40 to a 38.
Straps slip off
The straps need to be adjusted so they are a tighter fit. For more support you may need to try a bra with wider straps.
Your breasts are bulging out the top or sides of the cup
The cup size is too small. Try a larger cup size e.g. B to a C cup.
The fabric is wrinkling on the cups
The cup is too big. Make sure you lift your bust into the bra. If the fabric still wrinkles try going down a cup size e.g. D to a C cup.
The prosthesis is moving to one side
The most common problem is the band is too big. Try a smaller band size. If the problem persists it may be that the prosthesis is too light and you need to try a slightly heavier style.
