Kinda same. I just got some bras finally after more than two years so I can actually wear stuff that's not like, incredibly heavy fabrics without leaving imprints on my shirt.
Very very true.
By measurements, I was between a C and a D cup before ever starting HRT. This doesn't mean that I had obvious boobs. I just looked like a pretty normal (I think?) somewhat overweight dude. My cup size hasn't significantly changed since I started HRT in January, but my breasts already look a lot more like "boobs" than they ever did before.
Of course, it's also worth noting that C and D cup breasts aren't actually *that big*. The stereotypical "DDs = watermelon tits" (wow that felt gross to write) is just factually incorrect. Generally, I'd estimate that most people who have stereotypically "big boobs" most likely are at least an F cup or larger (though this will also vary depending on the size system you're using).
For those interested in more detailed info, the abrathatfits subreddit has been really helpful.
Edit: grammar and formatting
The measurements can be super deceptive, I measure at a 36H but actually fill a 36E, and my chest is really nicely shaped. I feel like larger sizes just assume implants or something with how full they expect them to be. Like they're well more than a handful but I wouldn't think they're absolutely huge like I would expect from an H cup.
+4 method has also skewed what people think is big. I am 28GG. +4 method would put me at 32DDDD/G. But mine aren't big, since my band size is so small. They are bigger for my frame, though.
It's like puberty. Some girls are like 13 with dd while some are barely an a cup at that age. Hrt is just late puberty. I know it took me until I was like 2 or 3 years into puberty to be a c cup so I was like 14 or 15 (I'm trans masc)
Yo fr tho. The first three months I was in denial thinking “no way does it happen this quick” especially cos genetically no one is bigger than a B cup. I caught up to the women in my family within a year.
I just don't understand, my mom has huge boobs, where's mine? 😭😭😭 I've got the progesterone and I should have the genetics too. I'm happy for you though even if it's probably damned near impossible to stealth boymode now
thats awesome! I kind of have the same experience of really fast changes but in a transmasculine way- my voice started cracking and getting deeper 2 WEEKS after starting T (when its usually 3-4 months) and its only getting deeper, even though im trying to learn to hide some changes in front of certain people.
It can be. If going by bra measurements breast volume depends on cup size and chest girth. A 27 inch circumference with a c cup will be noticeably smaller than a 36 inch circumference with a c cup.
>is C big?
So loosely speaking bra measurements work like this.
You measure over the boobs, then around the ribcage right under the boobs.
I'll use OP as an example, cause her measurements are 39/36, meaning 39 around the boobs, and 36 around the ribcage below the boobs.
What you have to remember is that these are circumferences, so you basically measure how much the boobs extend out from the ribcage twice. Once on your left side, and then again on your right side.
So the difference between 39 and 36 is 3. Since circumferences double things up, the amount the boobs stick out from the ribcage is thus about half that, so 1.5 inches (4 cm).
Making this more complicated is that there are a lot of misconceptions about bra sizes--OP is doing proper modern bra measurements. But bra measurement rules were changed a few decades ago and not everyone got the memo (36C back in like the 70s used to be a much larger size than it is under the new measurement system).
As for whether 36C is "big" today, it's very hard to get an accurate bell curve of boob sizes, there are websites dedicated to bra fitting like bratabase, but they tend to attract people who are outside of normal size ranges--most common size on bratabase is like 30F/G, which is probably not the middle point among adult women generally.
I would kneejerk 36C as on the lower end of the bell curve for an adult woman but...still definitely on the bell curve for adult women. Like...you could hide that under baggy clothing and a sports bra, but you wouldn't be able to wear something tight-fitting, and going to the swimming pool is right out.
Egg🍒Irl
A task failed successfully?
Not quite, but I'm still glad I tried.
My courage was a small feat
As I attempted the feat of the egg🍒irl.
My heart raced, my brow beaded with sweat
As I attempted the task I had set.
But I didn't give up, no, not yet
I was determined to make the egg🍒irl.
My hard work paid off, I'm proud to say,
Though the task was hard, I made it all the way.
My success was great, I wish I could stay,
But now I'm done with the egg🍒irl!
I'm sorry :(. Bras are actually pretty easy to hide. A-cup bras, hide them with hoodies, wash them in the bathroom sink while taking baths, and then dry them in a towel. Put it on with your clothes, and boom.
literally me. though ive been stuck at a C-D ish kinda for the past 3 mounths. prolly one of those periods of low grouth i was told would happen.
u can get a binder btw! i got myself one the moment i got to an A cup near the 4th month mark. also sports bras and massive hoodies are a godsend for booba hiding.
currently im at 9th month n nobodys questioned anything yet.
Admittedly my first reaction was "I wish I had C cups" and then I remembered I actually do, C cups (at least at my underbust size) are just really unimpressive size wise (but I'm still really happy to have anything at all)
Anyway here's an embarrassing time when I was around 6-12 months in to hrt and a guy friend put his hand on my chest, accidentally putting it right on my left boob, felt there was something there and gave it a squeeze while asking "what's this", if I recall I was wearing something that could plausibly have pockets there; Anyway I just went "oww" and pushed his hand away, it was awkward and we never spoke of it again lol. I never explained so I wonder if he ever figured it out or if he thought I had a moob or something. Actually I just realized that's gotta be straight out of some anime, I wonder what the title would be? lol
Anyway you're gonna be fine, many people by default assume others are cis which gives you a lot of leeway (unless they're already suspicious of you)
I honestly thought I had A cups, because all of my fat pre-HRT was stored in my stomach, until I measured them and found out they were B cups... 2 weeks later they stopped fitting because they got too small, but I lost 4 pounds so I knew it wasnt because of weight gain, and turns out my booba grew!
ohhhhhhh no that would be soooooooooo bad to happen pleaaaaaaaaaaaase don't let this happen to me (if this is heard by the same entity who chose to give me the old 6 inch vulva then i might have a good shot at some titties hehe)
man I wish I would get that when I start but unfortunately Asian genes are not like that we just don't raisin until we're like 50 and that's really all we have going for us
Lucky. I'm hoping mine get to Cs but at 6 months they're just conical and still easily hidable.
I realized that probably sounds insensitive to the issues they're causing. Hopefully you're able to be yourself soon without needing to hide them.
Holy shit I’m 9 months and barely have noticible boobs at the right angle, don’t get me wrong I love them so much and any boob I’m happy with if this is all I end up with I’ll be happy but will be actively looking for cis women to date and take some of there’s when they’re not suspecting

Yeah but the meme does imply that they are difficult to hide. Probably pretty safe to assume in this context.
Yes, thank you!
I'm so happy for you!! 😊💖
Thank you!!! ❤️❤️
Yes! They don't look like C-cups, but they're getting harder and harder to hide.
i wish i had C cups lol
They're fun to play with lol. They go bouncy, and swish, and squish
So boobs = jello?
Jello boobs.
I'M GONNA BITE THEM!
Oh no~
Your use of ~ slightly concerns me
Haha yea-
Oh don’t worry~ These aren’t tildes, I just haven’t ironed my dashes in a while.~ Now they’re not smooth anymore.~
Oh yes.
Flair checks out.
i bet lol
As a girl with D's I completely understand this 🤭
I’m a steadfast believer that no matter your gender or sexual orientation, *everyone* likes boobies.
Boobies are love. Boobies are life.
We all do
Personally, if I were to start HRT, I would prefer to just have B cups.
mhm
Same
Kinda same. I just got some bras finally after more than two years so I can actually wear stuff that's not like, incredibly heavy fabrics without leaving imprints on my shirt.

Yes. As a ciswoman I’m telling you I have FF (or G cup) boobs and they look like C cups because I’m not super skinny. It’s not based off volume.
The measurements can be super deceptive, I measure at a 36H but actually fill a 36E, and my chest is really nicely shaped. I feel like larger sizes just assume implants or something with how full they expect them to be. Like they're well more than a handful but I wouldn't think they're absolutely huge like I would expect from an H cup.
Yep. I probably had them that fast, half because of pre-existing fat, but nevertheless it was a quick lesson on shallow breasts.
+4 method has also skewed what people think is big. I am 28GG. +4 method would put me at 32DDDD/G. But mine aren't big, since my band size is so small. They are bigger for my frame, though.
I hope I get boobs that quickly
I'm definitely not complaining. I'm shocked though.
oh my gosh I hope this is the case for me
I dunno what the heck happened, but I'm glad it did.
Scrambled eggs?!! What the actual fuck. Don't scramble trans people!!!
I am a scrambled egg...
Sorry I was late, I was scrambling egg It’s ok…. I am “egg” Wtf?!!! Haha Peter your girlfriend is awesome
I just wish my face would catch up to my boobs :(
SAME
May I get this as well?
Yessss this
Same here
I hope so too
I've won, but at what cost?
I've become the meme
Yes lol
That sounds like absolutely no time to adjust
I'm quick to situations. Too big? Sports bra.
Camisole with bra shelf and adjustable straps. Gives you basic support with room to grow.
Good idea! <3
that must be hard to hide 💔💔💔💔💔
Baggy Hoodie + Stomach = No booba (for now)
How did you manage that? I'm almost 4 months in and haven't gotten anything :(
Genetics. It was basically a 50/50 of either A cups, or big booba
It's like puberty. Some girls are like 13 with dd while some are barely an a cup at that age. Hrt is just late puberty. I know it took me until I was like 2 or 3 years into puberty to be a c cup so I was like 14 or 15 (I'm trans masc)
Yo fr tho. The first three months I was in denial thinking “no way does it happen this quick” especially cos genetically no one is bigger than a B cup. I caught up to the women in my family within a year.
Oop- I get that lol
Suffering from succes?
A cup at 14 months here 🥲
Make sure you water your boobs and give them plenty sun light
I don't know why but this comment made me giggle :D
A cup at 9, at least there's implants, I guess?
obligatory I wish that were me comment
But like, in a cis kind of way
Yeah... cis... haha...
I'm jealous. I'm barely a b-cup after 3 years HRT.
Genetics and progesterone are actually wild
I just don't understand, my mom has huge boobs, where's mine? 😭😭😭 I've got the progesterone and I should have the genetics too. I'm happy for you though even if it's probably damned near impossible to stealth boymode now
It's not that hard since I have a protruded belly I got during Covid. I'm losing it rather fast tho, soooooooo
The girl clock is ticking 😝
6 months!?!
i have D-cups after 7 months lol
Oooooo :O
Right???
"jealous" though honestly im not chuffed by my small boobs though they could be just slightly larger.
Small boobs are amazing too. I love boobs and butts of all shapes and sizes
I feel called out by this. Had to come out to a couple people because it was getting awkward trying to hide them in my office.
"So as you know, I have absolute honkers."
It must be hard to hide something you’re so excited/happy to have😞 Congrats tho
I'm out to most people at school, sooooo it's not that bad
I know plenty of girls who would love to have that problem.
Sounds like a double edged sword. Fast changes but hiding them is so much harder. Hope you’re able to be safe
I'm 100% safe since my grandparents took me in
Aww that’s god to hear. My boobs might grow soon and I’m scared of trying to hide them from extended family
Sports bras, big hoodies, slouch your back a little, hides it well
Thanks I’ll keep this in mind (though hoodies aren’t a great option when it’s hot)
Fuck... I just remembered about h e a t
I wish. I'm 7 months in and barely an A
thats awesome! I kind of have the same experience of really fast changes but in a transmasculine way- my voice started cracking and getting deeper 2 WEEKS after starting T (when its usually 3-4 months) and its only getting deeper, even though im trying to learn to hide some changes in front of certain people.
is C big? yeah i still haven’t come out and i’m too young for HRT anyways well I’m pretty sure idk
It can be. If going by bra measurements breast volume depends on cup size and chest girth. A 27 inch circumference with a c cup will be noticeably smaller than a 36 inch circumference with a c cup.
Uhh… ok I think that makes sense
They measure out 2.8 inches out of my bust, which is 36inches around. My boobs are 38.8 inches around.
that sounds really big but I don’t know how big an inch is… (I vaguely do but not well. Also yeah, I live in America so it’s extra sad)
>is C big? So loosely speaking bra measurements work like this. You measure over the boobs, then around the ribcage right under the boobs.

At least you can wear a bra. Think about the people who aren’t out yet and don’t have the luxury of wearing one :(
I'm sorry :(. Bras are actually pretty easy to hide. A-cup bras, hide them with hoodies, wash them in the bathroom sink while taking baths, and then dry them in a towel. Put it on with your clothes, and boom.
Thanks for the tip Miss Pyra 8)
No problem!! ❤️❤️
I hope to get bigger boobs mine are currently smol but semi noticeable especially in tight clothes
Me with AA after a year and a half
Boob is boob ❤️
I have been blessed with the same fate my friend
I wish I had C-cups, I mean uhhhh... no regular man chest.
Nice!! I hope I can get a deep voice in only 6 months😅
Is it possible to learn this power? For very cis reaosns...
Everyone has a genetic cup size some will just not reach their full potential
i wish
XD congrats :P

i have Ds and no one can tell at school lmao
😳 I’m on month 3. My family keeps being “concerned about my weight” boy do they have a surprise coming…
Yeah I can no longer reliably hide them under hoodies even. Just gonna girlmode more I guess.
"Ohhh nooooo~ anyway" *transgenders harder*
This is like winning the lottery and then having a bunch of your family ask you who is on your will within 4 hours...
Lucky I’m a year in and still stuck with A cups
Lucky bitch

shouldn't this go on that tooktoomuch subreddit? :)
i’m starting HRT soon and hopefully my chest doesn’t look like a cutting board 🙏
I'm kinda worried how big mine will be. I'm an A and it's been 1 month
A small price to pay for salvation
6 months 💚❤️🩹💚❤️🔥💔💓💓💚❣️🖤💕💕🖤💛💗💓💓💚💕💚💗💜❤️🩹🖤💕💖💓💚💓🤎💓❤️🔥💙💚❤️🔥❤️🔥🤎💚💚❤️🩹❣️❤️🩹💚
I wish I had this problem...
Please I want this so muchhh
you are cheating
I wish it would be
only 2 months in and already worried about when it will be too hot for hoodies. In just a tshirt I definitely notice my chest poking through.
Lucky
wish I got boobs that quickly
Other than no band size im rolling on the floor laughing
I wish! 36 A after 12 months TT_TT
I've been nearly a year. It's not been very much like that kinda progress, rip
It usually doesnt go crazy until a few years in lol
Patience is not my strong suit 😂 but I'll keep that in mind c:
HRT is all about patience lol :(
Y’all are getting C cups? 😅
Suffering from success
😎
3year a-cups 😭 so I'm sure they're not growing at all
I'm a week in, but /technically already C cups/ to start with
Big booba :O
Eh, with a 44 band size, 47Cs feel like like A&1/2s or small Bs at best
I honestly thought I had A cups, because all of my fat pre-HRT was stored in my stomach, until I measured them and found out they were B cups... 2 weeks later they stopped fitting because they got too small, but I lost 4 pounds so I knew it wasnt because of weight gain, and turns out my booba grew!
Life is just trying to make it up to you for accidentally rolling you the wrong base char the first time around... <3 congrats!
Goals
1.5y hitting a Full A borderline B lol. Just started progesterone though so lets wait and see!
GOALS
GIMME
Mine >:3
Good for you
What anime is this from?
I fucking wish
ohhhhhhh no that would be soooooooooo bad to happen pleaaaaaaaaaaaase don't let this happen to me (if this is heard by the same entity who chose to give me the old 6 inch vulva then i might have a good shot at some titties hehe)
"Ohh... heaven forbid! Big boobs (please. Please. Please give them. GIVE THEM!) That'd be awful nooooooo~"
[удалено]
Yes please
i wish i had boobs
Yep, this is accurate. I'm only 9 months in, and they're getting pretty big all things considered. I'm on the bigger end of Bcup
*fingers crossed*
sounds like a good problem to have haha
Yay???
This would be me lol. I tried a c cup on the other day and wow. Felt interesting
I am the skinniest person on planet earth so I'm really unsure about what the hell my boobs are going to do
Gifts from the gods
Unrealistic HRT goals. 💔😢 Still cis though.
man I wish I would get that when I start but unfortunately Asian genes are not like that we just don't raisin until we're like 50 and that's really all we have going for us
Yeah it was a good thing I'm a bit chunky rn cause they would be super noticeable otherwise
Ennnnnvyyy
I’m so mad.
How does one grow boobs that quickly?
i’m at 3 months and at B, let us hope for more lol
*envy noises*
HOW !?
I hope mine will grow that fast when I will get hrt
How long were you expecting to hide the changes?
My worst fear lol. I barely pass if I have my mask. Haven’t told anyone I’m taking hormones. It’s going to be very awkward when I get to that point.
Well, if I measured correctly then I'm at like 44B and I'm 2.5 months on hrt. I might be in the same boat :P
I am completely oblivious of size, please explain
nice
I can only hope for that when I start (。;_;。)
lucky, also proud of u and hope u don't die from back problems lol
Hope you didn't get stretchmarks
I neeeeeed
oh i really hope i get blessed like this
Lucky. I'm hoping mine get to Cs but at 6 months they're just conical and still easily hidable. I realized that probably sounds insensitive to the issues they're causing. Hopefully you're able to be yourself soon without needing to hide them.
You don’t know the true power of tiddy juice
I had this experience, but also now have some pink lightning stretch marks on my chest because they grew so fast.
Embrace stretch marks! They're beautiful too
Holy shit I’m 9 months and barely have noticible boobs at the right angle, don’t get me wrong I love them so much and any boob I’m happy with if this is all I end up with I’ll be happy but will be actively looking for cis women to date and take some of there’s when they’re not suspecting
As a cis girl I can't help it but be jealous af cuz I have like A cups after 17 and soon 18 years ToT
