Three common problems

The calculated cup number is not necessarily the size you should buy in the end. There are three possibilities:

1) Excessive body fat: The cup size should be one level larger in proportion. (For example, when the error is C level, D is generally selected)

2) The calculation error is relatively vague: you should try to choose a larger cup size to allow room for breast growth. (For example, if the error is 15 and is close to C and D, choose D)

3) The shape of the breast is flat like a pile of loose sand: the smaller the measurement error, the larger the cup size selected. (For example, if the fat is squeezed and shaped according to scientific dressing techniques, and the measured size is a B cup, then the selected cup is a C cup)
