Bra For Breast Cancer Patients

Breast surgical operation and radiation treatments will change the shape and size of breast cancer patients breast, caused pain and discomfort, or swelling after breast cancer treatment. Hence finding the right bra for breast cancer patients after breast surgery or reconstruction of the breast after mastectomy are important.

Breast cancer therapy may change the way a woman views her body at the beginning. Negative feelings are likely to lead to low self esteem and other psychological stress. A well fitted bra are likely to make breast cancer patients feel better. The right bra could even allow patients to wear some of those T-shirts and camisoles. A comfortable bra will also help with some of the side effects of breast cancer treatment, like added sensitivity or numbness around the treated area, swelling and lymphedema.

Find A Bra For Breast Cancer Patients

● A bra that has been fitted properly shouldn't embrace your chest too closely. A well fitted bra for breast cancer patients shouldn't allow impressions or red marks after you remove it.

● Your surgery (lumpectomy or mastectomy) and the location of your incisions may determine the type of bra you are able to wear and its cost.

● A bra that offers full coverage with wide straps and a front closure can be easier to put on and could offer more comfortableness.

● Ask your bra fitter if your surgery allows for certain bra styles such as lowcut or strapless bras.

● Before visiting the store, consider arranging an appointment with the bra fitter, as they may not be available at all times.

● Some bra fitters may provide home services. Ask the staff at the store if this service is available.

● Not all stores will stock every product, but staff might be willing to order certain items. If  the store does not carry what you want, enquire the staff if ordering services are available. You may also ask the staff for the option of designing a custom made bra to suit your body shape and taste.

● Bring your favourite shirt or lowcut top along for your fitting. This will help the fitter to find the best bra to suit your clothing style.

● Generally, bras need to be replaced after 3 to 6 months of constant use.

● You can swim at the beach if your prosthesis is made of silicone. However, swimming in a pool with your silicone prosthesis is discouraged. The chlorine will damage it.

● Shop around. Do not decide to buy a bra until you are sure it is the best bra for YOU.

● Bring a close friend for encouragement and support! One who will tell you honestly what suits you best.

You can wear a bra immediately after surgery, as long as you are comfortable. Surgical or post operative bras are generally suggested for the first few weeks after the operation. Lightweight, seamless leisure bras with front closures (such as sports or jogging bras) are another option. They are adjustable and tend to interfere less with painful incision areas. However, they may not always be suitable for women with larger breasts. Generally, it is advise to wait 6 to 8 weeks after surgery before fitted for a new bra for breast cancer patients. This is to avoid fitting bras over tender, swollen areas.
