Thank-you so much Rosie, I am very grateful for your reply. It's nice to know that there are other women out there who are or have been through the same thing as me. I find it encouraging to know that most women who have an explant gradually start to feel better, I am really hoping this is the case with me! I am a bit concerned about being very flat-chested again and not feeling like a women, I know I will feel self-concious again but what is the alternative? It's my health or my self-esteem and obviously common sense tells me what I need to do. The explant date is getting nearer & I'm feeling more nervous but I know I must go through with it for the sake of my health. It's nice to read other women's stories to relate to.

How long ago did you have your explant Rosie and how do you feel now? X
