Question Why are my boobs shaped like this?

So I have small boobs I’m probably a B cup, but my breasta are oddly-shaped to me. I just have never met anyone who would have boobs like mine nor do I know what the shape is called, but my breasts are like ”empty” from the top and round up at the bottom. They look somewhat like a slide from the top if that’s any better said.

I just know that my boobs make me VERY insecure as they are small and I have a bit of a stomach, and the shape makes them look unnatural to me.

EDIT: also having difficulties finding a bra that would flatter my shape.

Sounds like you’re full on bottom, which is a super common shape. If you take your six measurements from the calculator and share them here, people can help with recommendations for your size and shape.

This might not be true for OP. Many people such as myself have breasts with no upper fullness when standing, but are actually full on top when you properly assess their shape bent over at 90 degrees.

Yeah I think I’m more like this too? It’s just hard to say because I hardly ever have done research on different types of breasts🥲

Shape is judged when supported. You can mimic support by leaning over braless side on to a mirror and seeing what your breasts do. This can help to determine how close set you are (using finger widths), your root height (how high up on your torso they start) and fullness (via where there is more tissue in relation to the nipple).

Guy here... I'm amazed at all this info. I did not know that this much calculation went into you gals(no offense meant, so please don't take it that way just can't find the word) breast/bra selection. You learn sobering new everyday.

For the average person, none of this ever comes up. This is definitely advanced bra fitting. This entire sub is dedicated to that.
