I have a very small bust and have been thinking about getting implants. I'm currently an A/B cup (just barely a B).

I know there are those who will say that I should be happy with what God gave me. But I'd be intersted in hearing from anyone who has implants (or who's wife has them). Has your life changed much (good or bad) as a result of getting the implants? Does your husband think that you are much more sexy than before?

A reader says ... DON'T GET IMPLANTS before you try a natural solution. This does work, and you might want to read the testimonials about it on this website:

My wife used a combination of fenugreek, saw palmetto and wild yam for about three weeks and saw a marked increase in the fullness and firmness of her breasts--they looked wonderful. She discontinued using these herbs because she had to go on other medication and she's not sure how they might interfere with one another. But they definitely did the job. If she had taken them longer, she would have gone from a 34A to a 34C in a couple of months at the rate she was going. You can get the above herbs more cheaply at a nutrition center. Take two capsules each three times a day and it should make a difference.

Don't feel that this is ridiculous. I wonder if the one who commented about the intellect (by the way, he or she misspelled that word) would recommend not getting an education because, intellectually, are you how God made you. Using this logic, youshould not comb your hair, shave your legs or apply makeup. I hope this helps and that you will both enjoy your breasts to the fullest (sorry about the pun.)

A reader says ... My wife's breast collapsed after nursing our first child. I believe the Dr. called it ptosis; they were live empty sacks. She was a 34B before, but went to a 32 less-than-A. I proposed implants and she readily agreed. That was in 1981. She had to have them replaced with a different brand a year after the surgery due to encapsulation, but since that time there have been no problems with sensation at her nipples or with nursing our next four children. She went from to a 36C, and we both have loved our decision. We thank God that we live in a time when this can be done. We would never go back!

A reader says ... hmmmm  "immoral and ridiculus"? ---- nice gentle phrasing. I wonder how her self estreem was after that comment? While I'm not wild about women getting implants, if it helps you, that's your business. While I love a woman to have a great intellect, I would never deny the role that physical appeal has. I don't think Esther was just reading books nor was Solomon's bride. I think your decision should be based on the benefits that it can provide both wife and husband. If there are none --- don't do it. If there are --- why not?

A reader says ... I have had implants I was a 32B and now 32C and that small difference in size has really improved how I view myself and how others view me. About 80% of the people I told the Op, before I had it done, thought I was crazy. But now they all agree it really has improved my confidence and I feel so much more like a lady then i ever have done before, my advice would be go for it, no need to hesitate. Good luck.X

A reader says ... I think that breast implants are immoral and ridiculous.  You shouldn't be looking for a boost of self esteem through your body rather you should be looking for it through your intelect.  Too often we tend to compare ourselves to everybody else and this can be quite damaging to our spirits.  We aren't perfect and neither is everyone else. If you or your spouse is comparing your figure to that of others than I feel there is a bigger issue to work out.  I am not suggesting that this is always the case but understand that God created you a certain way.  If their is no medical reason for the proceedure than why do it?  You should be able to be loved no matter how you look on the outside. It is your heart that your spouse has fallen in love with not your body.

A reader says ... It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I was a B cup as well, and went to a D, and many things changed as a result. I felt sexier and more confident and this changed the way I related to my husband. I disagre with the writer who said that they become less sensitive, if you get them placed under the muscle rather than just under the skin, there is no differance in the sensitivity at all. This costs a little more and the healing time is a little longer as well, but the look and feel is much more natural. I went home and experimented with differant sizes, wearing them under my clothes, ect, for a few weeks before I made my decision what size to get. I wanted to look proportionate and sexy without looking tacky and cheap...Im a mother of 3 and a grandmother of 1 at age 42. Anyway, I say try "wearing" a few around for awhile and see if they would be something you still want. I have had mine for 2 years and have not regreted it once.

A reader says ... After having children I think implants can make sense.  It is important that you want them for yourself as well as for your husband.  Please do not get them if he is the only one that really wants them. The down side with implants is that your breast will not be as senstive to the touch.  With any surgery you also need to weight the health risks.
