When Evelin became a mother in her late teens, her body – like many women’s – began to change. But it wasn’t until after her second child that she truly noticed something: her breasts were no longer the same size. What started as a small difference grew over time, making everyday tasks – like dressing or working out – feel unexpectedly complicated.
“At first, I didn’t pay much attention,” Evelin recalls. “But after a while, I started stuffing something into one side just so my clothes would sit right.”
The silent discomfort no one talks about
For years, Evelin quietly tried to fix the imbalance. She visited doctors, who assured her there was no medical issue. She tested dozens of bras, inserting padding, adjusting fits, only to face frustration – slipping inserts, uneven shirts, and embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions at the gym or beach.
“I once jumped into the sea, and later realized the pad was floating beside me.”
There was no obvious solution. Most bras weren’t made to be adjusted asymmetrically. And in those pre-Google years, there was little information – let alone community – for women like Evelin.
When the solution doesn’t exist, you create it
Then came a turning point: Evelin’s relative, who had undergone breast reconstruction, saw an ad for Symmetrista and passed it on.
“Trying on the Symmetrista bra for the first time felt like... peace. I didn’t have to think about anything anymore. My body could rest. My brain could rest.”
But Evelin didn’t stop at just wearing her new bra. She got creative. When summer came, she took a silk scarf she loved and transformed her Symmetrista bra into a bikini top – something that finally worked for her body on the beach.
“It was freeing. I didn’t have to worry about pieces falling out or hiding my body.”
Living with confidence – not despite your body, but with it
Today, Evelin talks about her journey not with bitterness, but with realism, humor, and resilience.
“I haven’t really been ashamed – just uncomfortable. When doctors said everything was fine, I thought: ‘Well, then I’ll just live with it.’ If this is the biggest problem I have, then I’m doing just fine.”
Evelin’s story is more than a testimonial. It’s a reminder that:
-
Breast asymmetry is more common than we think
-
Discomfort doesn’t have to be normal
-
You’re not alone – and you don’t have to compromise on comfort or style!
