I started my second transition going "I more than likely won't go for BA, I'll be happy with whatever HRT does."
At seven months, I find myself rethinking that.
I still don't want anything too large, but I find myself looking at how they're developing....and wanting more. Mostly because our society is messed up enough that breast size and appearance is seen as the number one sign of being a woman.
I skipped this post on my first run through your site. "Implants? I'm not *that* trans."
I've come back to it now. On the bright side, we have at least one surgeon in Edmonton connected to the Cross Cancer Insitute who has a great reputation. I've even sat in on a consult with him after my ex-wife's mastectomy, so I've learned a bit about the various techniques. They can graft fatty tissue from elsewhere to help reconstruct a breast, which basically adds a free liposuction job to the procedure!
My ex still hasn't committed to her reconstruction. She's been cancer-free for five years now, and she wears her asymmetry with pride. Wouldn't it be crazy if I got new boobs before she does?

Mmmmm maybe keep working on this one. I have a suspicion there might be more complicated feelings beneath this, Shannon.

Fat graft BAs can be a good option, but be aware that about half of the fat grafted will not survive long term!
