Why does one breast seem bigger than the other in my bra?

One breast appearing bigger than the other in your bra is a completely normal experience that stems from natural body asymmetry. Most women have some degree of breast asymmetry, and because bras are engineered with identical cups, this difference becomes more apparent when you're wearing a bra.

Common factors that contribute to this asymmetry include hormonal fluctuations during your menstrual cycle, weight changes that affect breast tissue differently on each side, and even posture or chest wall variations that influence how each breast sits in the cup.

To get the best possible fit, choose your bra size based on your fuller breast, adjust the strap slightly shorter on the smaller side, and consider adding a removable pad or "cookie" to balance the silhouette. Bras with flexible cups (instead of rigid foam) work particularly well because they adapt to your unique shape rather than forcing your body to conform to rigid symmetry. Honeylove's wireless bras, like the CrossOver Bra and SoftForm Bra, are great options.
