Well I am 65 and I have that problem. I went to Nordstrom's and got fitted for some good bra's. One was a workout bra and then 2 regular bras. You don't know 'heaven' until you have been fitted for a bra! I am sure there are other stores which provide fitting services like Victoria Secret, Macy's, etc. Marti in San Jose

Over half of all women are said to wear the wrong size bra. You're size is 5" plus the measurement under the breast. Cup size is calculated in various ways, and there are several good sites, if you search the internet, to find this. It should not dig into your flesh, the piece between the cups should lie flat on your sternum and the shoulder straps should only hold 10% of the weight. If it makes you look like you have four breasts, the cup is too small. If it is an empty bag, it's too large. My wife thought she wore a 38D. We found out she wears a 42C. She is much happier and looks great!
