Post-mastectomy lingerie includes bras and camisoles with padding to replace removed breasts. Different types are available for single or double mastectomies, with or without padding. Mastectomy stores also offer forms to wear inside bras or tops. Professional fitting is recommended for best results.

Post mastectomy lingerie is lingerie designed for a woman who has undergone a mastectomy. This lingerie includes the type of items a woman would normally wear to cover and support her breasts, such as bras and camisoles, and therefore usually features padding to replace the removed breast(s). Although mastectomy lingerie is available in online and offline stores, many women, especially first-time shoppers, feel more comfortable getting a professional fit before choosing post-mastectomy lingerie.

As some of the most common undergarments a woman wears on a daily basis, bras and camisoles are among the most prevalent types of post-mastectomy lingerie. In general, these pieces are designed with padding to create a shape and shape similar to that of a woman with breasts. Just as there are different types of mastectomies, there are different types of mastectomy lingerie. For example, a woman who has had a double mastectomy can buy a camisole or padded bra with two padded cups, while a woman who has had a single mastectomy can buy a camisole or padded bra on one side only. Just like regular bras and underwear, manufacturers create post-mastectomy lingerie in different sizes, as well as with different degrees of padding.

Of course, manufacturers recognize different preferences among women, and some types of post-mastectomy lingerie are designed without padding. Instead, it is created to fit comfortably around a woman’s chest area and snug enough to prevent any bulky or bulging tissue. Such post-mastectomy options are entirely up to each woman’s personal preferences.

It is also common to find other types of undergarments and tops in mastectomy lingerie stores. For example, many of these stores also carry sports bras and other sports tops for women who have had mastectomies. Also, women can find mastectomy pajamas and tank tops.

Many stores that specialize in mastectomy lingerie also provide shapes that women can wear with their bras, camisoles, and other tops. These forms are similar to breast implants, only they are worn inside a bra or other top. Such forms are generally made of a soft, lightweight material and come in various cup or breast sizes. Some women prefer these shapes because they allow them to turn their regular lingerie into mastectomy lingerie. Also, these forms work well for women who have had single mastectomies and simply need a form similar in size and shape to the remaining breast.

A woman can buy post mastectomy lingerie from online and offline retailers. Still, she might find clothes that fit better if she gets a professional fit in person first. Her size requirements change after a mastectomy, and although many clothing websites provide measuring guides, she won’t know how the garment feels or looks until she tries it on. If a woman purchases post-mastectomy lingerie from a website or catalog, she should make sure she understands the company’s return policy before making a purchase. This will allow you to shop with confidence if an item doesn’t fit.
