I started buying bras in my proper size in August. Some 30Gs have worked well enough, but I found 28GGs worked well for me more consistently. I also bought one 28H.
The last two weeks, the 28H was all that fit without quad-boobing, although it was originally a bit too big in the cups. Yesterday and today I'm finding that I'm quad-boobing slightly in it.
Now, I know it's too shallow for my shape (Curvy Kate Tease Me half-cup) so there is a little bit of collapsed cup at the bottom where my boobs have too much immediate projection to squeeze into the bottom. But I had that before, and still couldn't fill out the 28H.
I also have hormone issues due to endometriosis, and may be having what my SO and I refer to as a "dry period" meaning I'm having all the other issues of menstruation but not actually bleeding. Aside from waiting a week or two, how do I know if the growth is permanent or just part of hormone fluctuations?

Ugg, wish I knew. I finally came to accept that my boobs are big during PMS and the first 2 days, but now they seem more bigger. All the time. I'm working my way towards menopause, so I'm wondering the same thing - as hormones keep shifting, will they go back down? Or do I need to start ordering all my bras up another cup?
@dbmamaz Right?! Because of my hormone issues, either my period or associated affects will sometimes last up to 10 weeks at a time. No joke. I'm going into week 3 of "dry period" symptoms, and while I love this bra I had a nip slip in it this morning (first time since I got ABTF) and my boobs aren't fully secured in any of my others, either. I've kinda gotten hooked on having good support! But even with the new quad-boob in the H I keep thinking, "I can't go up to a 28HH, they're not big enough for that." Letter-phobia: not just for newbies. Lol!
