3. Clothing Adaptations
One of the most important things that you should remember if you are planning to undergo a mastectomy is the fact that you will need to make some small adaptations to your clothing in order to get them to still be a comfortable fit after you have undergone a partial or total mastectomy.
This is a good excuse for many people to visit their local seamstress or tailor to have some small changes made to their existing clothing, although some people find that it’s easier to just adopt their wardrobe to new underwear that has been specifically designed to accommodate anyone who has had a mastectomy, usually easy to find.
Sometimes this can be filled up with inserts for aesthetic effect and comfort, though this isn’t always necessary – and comfort should always be the main factor to consider when shopping for clothes after a life-changing surgery such as a mastectomy.
