Struggling with Self-Confidence Without Breasts

Totally understandable. I’m 35 also and don’t have kids yet. Had to do IVF and all. <3

Did you ever think about reconstruction with your own tissue ? I had double mastectomies and had diep flap reconstruction . The best thing I ever did for myself under the circumstances. They look real and feel real. Maybe it is an option for your ? Hugs.

I also did DMX with Diep flap reconstruction at PRMA in Texas ! Amazing results and no implants

I understand I have Breast Cancer in my left Breast. I am thinking about having my left Breast removed. I am very concerned as I am afraid of needing compression on my arm.

That is good I am happy for you

I had Radiation so my tissue is recked so I am unable to have Reconstructive surgery. I will have to have a Prosthesis to put in my bra.

I had a double mastectomy with no reconstruction. My surgeon use the AFC and it is wonderful. Unfortunately, my partner kind of had blown me off. By choice, with her reaction and a few other issues, after 14 years, I left. I am happily single and have other women who embraced me
