Should I Get Breast Implants?

FULL C WOULD BE PERFECT

It's truly hard to give you an informed opinion from the photo.

That is why a surgeon will want to see you in person, to gauge
your proportions, to see the totality of you.

In general though for any transwoman, I tend to feel that there
will need to be some surgical interventions.

HRT, particularly when begun at a young age can and does work
wonders. However there are limitations to what it can ultimatetly
achieve.

Will HRT continue to enlarge your breasts, that is unknown. Also
without knowing your height and weight it is hard to render a
judgement.

But from just this one picture alone, I would say yes, surgery is
indicated.

Another, more doctor-y pic.

Again, this is why it's so important for you to meet with your
prospective surgeon so that you can reach a consensus on
what you want the finished results to look like.

You are seeking proportion.

You don't want to be top heavy. You don't want large breasts, and
poor hip to waist ratio.

You want your breasts to be appropriate to your frame. A short,
small framed woman will look very different with the same size
breast implants as a tall large framed woman.

A very good thing that you have done is you have allowed HRT to
give you adipose tissue (fatty tissue) to work with.

Some chicks haven't taken estrogen pill one, and slap on the biggest
breasts that they can, and the results are very unnatural looking.

this girls advice is to give it time- you look to have been on 'mones for maybe a year or two at the most. Small boobies are in now anyway, but here's the thing- if your mom's got big breasts, then you should grow into yours.

keep some bit of clinical perspective- if puberty starts at say ten years old for a girl and you've been on hormones for 2 years then you have wonderful development in comparison (sure you're not 12 years old, but give it a chance). you can always decide later if you still want implants. And nothing against advice from anyone previous, but always consider the source.

I myself have been on hormones for going on eleven years now and at first wanted implants so bad! Now, however i've got wonderful development- they feel incredible and they fit my body. Sure some days I think about implants, but I don't think I'll get them- I like my own far too much.

It takes a few yrs to develope properly, just give it time and if you do decide to have a BA, at least you will have Breast Tissue for implants. I was in a rush also, as most TS are during HRT. Time flys 2 yrs isnt that long.

I've been on estrogen and progesteron since like September 05.

I agree with Kira. If you started September 5th, and I don't know your dosage, but even if you were injecting and taking 200 mg progesterone daily, your development probably barely has begun.

I've been on HRT, full dosage and injecting, for a year and a half (injections since Sept) and my breasts are just barely b's. I would still wait another 6 to 12 months for implants so there was more tissue to blend and the skin was more stretched out. You need trunk space for all those groceries.
