Albania is ranked 52 out of 86 in the 2012 Social Institutions and Gender Index. The country was ranked 51 out of 102 in the 2009 Social Institutions and Gender Index
The country's Human Development Index (HDI) score in 2011 is 0.739, placing it in 70th place out of a total of 187 countries. The UNDP Gender Inequality Index in 2011 is 0.271. Albania's 2011 World Economic Forum Global Gender Gap Index ranking is 0.6748, placing it in 78th place (out of 135 countries).
Albania adopted a new Family Code in 2003.[1] The legal age of marriage is 18 years for women and men.[2] Early marriage is not widespread in Albania, but does occur. Data from the 2008-9 Demographic and Household Survey indicates that 9.4% of women aged 20-49 were married before the aged of 18.[3] Of these, 22.2% had no or basic (four years) primary education, indicating a link between early marriage and denial of access to education.[4] Within the Roma community, girls are sometimes married off at the age of 13-14.[5] In rural areas, most marriages are arranged.[6] Despite the legislation in place, forced marriages occur, particularly within the Roma minority.[7]
Polygamy does not appear to be legal in Albania, and is not a common practice.
Under the Family Code, Albanian parents share equal parental authority.[8] According to the 2010 CEDAW report, women are more likely to be granted custody of children in the event of divorce.[9]Divorce carries a high level of social stigma for women,[10] and is very uncommon in Albania: according to DHS data from 2008-9, only 1.2% of women aged 15-19 were divorced.[11] In rural areas, male domination is very prominent, both over the household and over women more generally.[12] Albanian women have the right to pass their citizenship onto their children, in the event that the child's father is not an Albanian citizen.[13]
The Civil Code gives men and women equal rights to inheritance of property and recognises two types of inheritance, legal and testamentary.[14] In practice, in most cases, inheritance follows the male line, and men inherit family-owned land, mainly because women move to the husband's family home upon marrying.[15] If a single woman has inherited property from her father, this passes to her husband's family if she then goes on to marry.[16] The phenomenon of disinheritance in favour of men is rare,[17] but not because discrimination against women does not exist: rather, it reflects the fact that women have poor access to land and property in the first place.

The Albanian Criminal Code does not contain any specific provisions regarding domestic violence, although it is mentioned in the Civil Code, in the context of government responsibility for providing support to victims of domestic violence and in campaigning against domestic violence.[18] The Civil Code also includes the provision that someone affected by domestic violence can apply to the court for a protection order banning the abuser from returning to the family home.[19] In the past, women have been very reluctant to report domestic violence, but Amnesty International reports that this is changing, particularly in urban areas with more women coming forward to report abuse (although some are then pressured into retracting their claims).[20] 990 cases were reported in the first nine months of 2009, according to official figures.[21] Cases are generally only prosecuted when they result in death, severe injury, or are accompanied by threats to life.[22] Despite the provisions included in the Civil Code outlined above, the authorities are not active in challenging domestic violence or providing support to victims.[23] For instance, even where protection orders are granted, they are often not adequately enforced.[24] This gap is filled by women's rights NGOs, who run help lines and four shelters for women affected by domestic violence.[25] A large minority of women appear to accept domestic violence as part of marriage: in the 2008-9 DHS, 29.8% of women agreed with at least one out of a list of five 'reasons' for a man to justifiably beat his wife.[26] In part, this is due to the fact that many communities, especially in the northeast, are still governed by the customary Kanun code that establishes the superiority of men over women.[27]
Rape, including spousal rape, is criminalised under the Penal Code, and carries a prison sentence of between three and 15 years, depending on the age of the victim.[28] In practice, the concept of spousal rape is not considered to be a crime by the authorities or the public, meaning that few cases are reported or prosecuted.[29] Overall, rape cases are apparently only pursued when there is evidence that the woman physically resisted.[30] Sexual harassment is illegal, but cases are seldom prosecuted.[31] A very real fear of kidnapping is cited by the 2010 report to the CEDAW committee as one of the reasons parents are reluctant to send older girls to school in rural areas.[32]
Even though it was formally criminalised in 2001, trafficking in persons is a serious problem in Albania, which is recognised as a source country for trafficked women and children.[33] Women and girls are trafficked for purposes of forced prostitution, while male and female children are trafficked to work as forced beggars.[34] Children left behind with relatives or friends when their parents migrate abroad to look for work are particularly at risk of being trafficked.[35] There is a National Strategy on the Fight against Trafficking in Human Beings in place, and many different government units and agencies detailed with addressing the issue,[36] but state action on the matter has so far been slow and inconsistent.[37] There is evidence that this is changing, however, in particular as the country seeks to fulfil its obligations regarding trafficking under the Stabilisation and Association Agreement that it has signed as a prerequisite for joining the EU.[38] There are four shelters for victims of trafficking, all run by NGOs (with no financial support from the government).[39] Women are reluctant to report being trafficked for fear of reprisals by their traffickers, or because their families may pressure them into retracting claims.[40] In addition, support to victims of trafficking is poor,[41] with victims are often arrested, treated like criminals, and accused of prostitution (which is a criminal offence[42]) and illegal entry into the territory.
There is no evidence to suggest that female genital mutilation is practiced in Albania.
Women in Albania have the right to use contraception, and contraception is provided free of charge at government-run family planning clinics.[43][48] Knowledge of contraception is extremely high – 98.6% of women could name at least one method – and 48% of sexually active women aged 15-49 reported currently using contraception of some form (although this included so-called 'traditional' methods).[44] Provision of health services, including for reproductive health, is limited and of poor quality in some remoter rural areas.[45] In addition, women may be reluctant to use local reproductive health services, for fear that service providers will not respect their right to confidentiality.[46] According to the 2010 CEDAW report, some NGOs have reported that women have to obtain the permission of their husband or mother-in-law before they can go to a family planning clinic to access reproductive health services.[47] Abortion is available on demand in Albania.

Sex selective abortion is specifically banned under the 2002 law 'On reproductive health'.[49] Infant and under-five mortality rates are higher for boys than for girls, as are malnutrition rates.[50] Vaccination rates for girls and boys are very high, and virtually the same (95.2% for boys and 95.1% for girls).[51] According to the 2008-9 DHS, net primary school attendance rates for girls and boys are virtually the same – 94.9% for girls and 95.4% for boys.[52] There is also not significant discrepancy between male and female secondary school attendance rates – 57.3% (boys) and 55% (girls).[53] However, only 12% of women aged 20-24 had completed secondary school, compared to 23.5% of men in the same age-bracket.[54] While schooling is officially free, parents have to pay for uniforms, text books, and sometimes heating for the school; such costs are sometimes cited as a reason not to send older girls to school, who are deemed to be of more use working at home.[55] Son preference seems to be pronounced in regard to access to secondary education, but not in regard to early childhood care, or access to primary education.
The male/female sex ratio for the total population in 2012 is 0.98. [56] Analysis of sex ratios across age groups indicates that Albania is a country of concern in relation to missing women, although juvenile sex ratios have fallen in recent years, indicating that there is improvement.

Under the country's Civil Code, Women in Albania have the same rights of ownership as men.[57] But in practice, after marriage, it is rare for Albanian women to have access to land, as land belonging to a couple can only be registered in the name of the household head, usually the husband.[58] Rural women attest to the fact that men rule the majority of households and are typically the official owners of the household land, often disposing of or renting out such land without their wives' consent.[59] Even when women do legally own land, it is often considered to belong to the whole family, and they are not considered to have the right to administer it.[60] Many women have difficulty exercising their right to access to property other than land, even though the right to private property is guaranteed by both the Constitution and the Civil Code.[61]
There are no legal restrictions on Albanian women's right to access credit from commercial banks, but in practice, bank loans require capital that women do not have, and husbands and male relatives who do own property are usually reluctant to support loan applications on behalf of their wives or female relatives.[62] As a result, women are rarely able to establish their own businesses.[63] A government programme is in place to encourage more women to join – and lead – agricultural cooperatives, and to provide easier access to credit for women in rural areas.[64]

There are no legal restrictions on women's freedom of movement in Albania, either within the country or abroad.[65] But in reality, freedom of movement is restricted by the expectation that a married woman will move to live with her husband's family.[66] In addition, women may have to seek permission from their husbands or family before travelling within Albania or abroad.[67] For some women, freedom of movement on a day-to-day basis is restricted, with 14.9% reporting that their husband/partner took the final decision as to whether their wife could go and visit her family members.[68] In addition, the internal registration system (whereby people can only gain access to government-provided social services in the district where they are registered) effectively limits freedom of movement for all Albanian citizens.[69]
Freedom of expression is protected under the Albanian Constitution, but in practice, pressure from powerful political and business interests makes it difficult for independent media outlets to thrive.[70] The media in Albania do little to challenge stereotypes regarding gender roles, and in fact, serve instead to reinforce them.[71]
Freedom of assembly and association is generally respected, although during the election campaign in 2009, police were used to obstruct an opposition rally.[72]
Under the Albanian Constitution, women have equal rights to vote and to stand for election.[73] However the 2010 CEDAW report notes that in some rural areas, members of a family will often vote for the same candidate, chosen by the (male) head of household.[74] The 2008 Gender Equality Law includes the provision that 30% of all government appointed positions and of party lists at election time should be reserved for women.[75] This has resulted in an increase in the number of women in the country's parliament from 10 in 2005 to 23 in 2009, out of a 140 (16.43%).[76] But there is still considerable societal resistance to women assuming positions of political power.[77] According to a survey conducted in 2002, over a third of Albanian women believed that men make better political leaders than women.[78] It is easier for women to gain positions of leadership in civil society, and women's rights organisations are very active in Albania.[79] They have been involved in campaigning for revision to the Family Code (which resulted in the successful adoption of a new Family Code in 2003, as detailed above), revisions to the Civil Code to address domestic violence, and for the new Gender Equality Law and anti-discrimination legislation, as well as providing services to women affected by violence, trafficking, and other violations of their rights.[80]
In Albania, pregnant women are entitled to up to a year's paid maternity leave, and it is illegal to dismiss a woman from employment while she is on maternity leave.[81] Discrimination on the grounds of gender in employment is prohibited.[82] Many women lost their jobs when the socialist regime collapsed, and female unemployment remains high.[83] 30% of women aged 15-49 questioned in the 2008-9 DHS considered themselves to be employed, mainly in professional, technical or managerial roles (25.8%) or in agriculture (34.6%).[84] Addressing the high level of unemployment among women is considered by the government of Albania to be an important priority.[85]

Formerly a socialist country that experienced a long period of political isolation in the 1970s and 1980s,[88] economic reforms were introduced in the late 1980s and multi-party elections were held for the first time in 1992.[89] Albania remains one of the poorest countries in Europe, where transition to a market economy has not brought prosperity for the majority of the population.[90] Significant challenges remain, in the form of poverty and unemployment, corruption, dilapidated physical infrastructure, and the influence of powerful organised crime networks.[91] In 2009, Albania became a full member of NATO and applied to join the European Union.[92] Islam is the majority religion, followed by 70% of the population, although there are sizeable Albanian Orthodox (20%) and Roman Catholic (10%) minorities.[93] Albania is classified classed by the World Bank as an upper-middle income country.[94]
Albanian society remains extremely conservative and patriarchal, particularly in rural areas. Women are expected to obey their husbands and male relatives and accept the role of dutiful wife and mother, and this places many de facto restrictions on their rights to participate in public life, and to enjoy their full human rights.[95] In addition, Albanian women have borne the brunt of the social and economic upheavals that have occurred in Albania since the end of the communist regime in the early 1990s, in the form of increased levels of violence against women, female unemployment and poverty, the closing of state-provided childcare facilities, and the revival of discriminatory cultural practices that had been suppressed during the communist period.[96]
Article 18 of the Albanian Constitution prohibits discrimination on the basis of gender.[97] Albania ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) in 1994, and the Optional Protocol on violence against women in 2004.[98] The country is a member of the Council of Europe and ratified the European Convention on Human Rights in 1996.[99] Legislation makes provisions for treaties to supersede national law and the parliament.[100] In 2008, a Gender Equality Law was passed, and more recently, legislation has been introduced banning discrimination on a wide range of social characteristics.[101] There is also a National Strategy for Gender Equality and against Domestic Violence in place.[102]

text: Bloomberg Editor on Halperin and Heilemann: 'We Are Not Ideological' Print article Send a Tip by John Nolte 2 Jul 2014 post a comment In a recent townhall meeting, Bloomberg Businessweek editor-in-chief talked about the company's new acquisition of political reporters and "Game Change" authors John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, and then bragged that, "One of our biggest advantages in politics is we are not ideological, we are not a sewer." Anyone even somewhat familiar with the work of Halperin and Heilemann knows how laughably dishonest that statement is. Heilemann is by far the worst of the two. While Halperin has his better moments, Heilemann has defended Secretary of State John Kerry's reprehensible remark about the possibility of Israel becoming an apartheid state, told Rand Paul to "stick" his thoughts on the unemployed "where they belong," and warned readers that should Romney lose to Obama, the "ferocity of the reaction of many of his supporters -- those who despise Obama with a passion so raw and burning it's hard to comprehend --will be breathtaking, and perhaps not a little scary." Heilemann has also compared opponents of gay marriage to racists, has never hid his love for ObamaCare on "Morning Joe," and is curiously selective when it comes to reporting and making issue of the tax rates paid by wealthy presidential candidates. Moreover, if Heilemann has ever used an ounce of his oh-so legendary reportorial skills to dig into even one of the many scandals dogging President Obama, Google can't find it. Why here's Heilemann admitting he did not dig into Obama's Solyndra scandal right before agreeing there is no scandal. Oh, and here's Heilemann making a gay joke about engaging in "a three-way" with Republican Rick Santorum. Oddly enough, Heilemann has been much more charitable towards serial child rapist Jerry Sandusky than Santorum and us scary, ferocious Republicans. I'm not sure "ideological" and "sewer" means what Bloomberg thinks it means. Halperin is the more quiet and thoughtful of the duo, but when he senses Obama might be in real danger, he can literally and very publicly freak out. Halperin's meltdown during the 2012 election when Drudge teased video of Obama's "other race speech," was one of the media's 2012 lowlights in an election filled with them. To his credit, Halperin has castigated the media plenty of times over their glaring pro-Obama biases. But he's also been caught talking out both sides of his mouth. On Fox News, after the disastrous rollout of ObamCare in late 2013, Halperin criticized the media for not vetting ObamaCare "at the time of passage" (but also dishonestly blamed Romney for the media's failings). But at that particular time of passage in 2010, in Time Magazine, Halperin boasted about how the media wouldn't vet ObamaCare and by doing so, Halperin encouraged them not to. One big reason to remain skeptical about the duo is a suspicion that rather than report what is happening in real time, they save juicy political stories up for later in order to sell more books. Reports say both will be paid more than $1 million a year by Bloomberg. History suggests that, in front of cameras manned by those making a fraction of what they do, they will praise any candidate who seeks to exploit income inequality for votes. If past is prologue, Halperin and Heilemann's new Bloomberg television show will also be filled with little to no actual reporting and a whole lot of conventional wisdom, elite opinion, elite talking head and guests, and rhetoric disguised as analysis in favor of empowering the federal government. In other words, "Morning Joe: After Dark." Then, sometime in early 2017 after Hillary is safely sworn in, the duo will release yet another page-turner about the presidential election, this one titled, "Sex Change: What We Were Too Greedy And Biased To Tell You During The Campaign."

(Afternoon) Soaps Lyrics - Arab Strap
Sit by me silently and brush my beard.
No mess to mop up from the bed today.
Will we sit next door and watch the soaps?
We've nothing to do and we've nothing to say.
Oh, when you go...
Recently, we've been somewhat volatile, and last night it starts with that Joan Osbourne song.
I hate it anyway, but you made it worse.
I know why you laughed and you should know you were wrong.
Oh, when you go...
Bird number one taught me I shouldn't trust, that's why I find unfounded doubts abound.
But number two proved that with none, we've nothing.
And now I'm only happy when you're not around.
Oh, when you go...

text: This news story is poorly researched. The truth is that mental health professionals observe the same signs and symptoms on a daily or weekly basis that were demonstrated by these shooters. It is a case of confirmation bias. In other words, we can look back and find that in a given population that possibly 1000's of people have the same presentation - get evicted, lost their job, had mental difficulties, etc. The best instruments that we have for violence prediction are not accurate at all.

Place of Birth
In the past, Kevin Nash has been pretty adamant about not wanting to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. He's even gone as far as to instruct his wife to decline the offer if he were to pass away. It seems like Nash is now softening his stance. He recently stated that he would refuse to be inducted as Diesel, but he did not mention anything about going in under his real name.
August 11, 2014
Even though he is now back in TNA, Rob Terry still continues to work for other wrestling promotions. Thanks to the new taping schedule for Impact Wrestling, he is able to work shows in Europe in early August.

July 25, 2014
As many of you already know by now, Drew McIntyre, who was once viewed as a future world champion in WWE by both Vince McMahon and the fans, received his release from the company earlier this month. The talented and underrated performer will now be forced to use a different name if he wishes to continue in the professional wrestling industry because WWE owns the trademark. The belief is that he will wrestle under his real name for the time being.
June 20, 2014
While doing a podcast interview with Chris Jericho, Daniel Bryan revealed some interesting details about his name in WWE.

May 25, 2014
While he will forever associated with the famous wrestling last name, Ole Anderson is actually not an Anderson at all. His real name is Alan Rogowski. He simply adopted the Ole Anderson name to connect with the audience who were already familiar with Gene Anderson, his story line brother. Another interesting point of interest is that Ole Anderson is a play on the word oleander, a poisonous plant.
April 28, 2014
Ever since his debut with TNA, fans have been searching for information on the mysterious Tigre Uno. Since he is a masked wrestler, people have obviously been trying to uncover his true identity by looking for unmasked images of him online. Thus far, none have been found. That does not come as a surprise, as even his real name remains a mystery at this point.
April 4, 2014
On Monday Night Raw this week, WWE revealed that Scott Hall would be the final entry into the hall of fame at Wrestlemania 30. Here is the special video for that announcement. A lot of wrestling fans have noted that the company is opting to use the Razor Ramon name as opposed to his real name.
March 25, 2014
When the future WWE Hall of Fame inductee made his debut in professional wrestling in 1965, there were not a lot of prominent Asia people in the country, so Harry Fujiwara, who was actually born in the United States, opted to stop using his real name and shortened it to Mr Fuji. It was easier for promoters and fans to spell and pronounce, and the move paid off rather well.
March 20, 2014
As was the case with most other performers who portrayed a heel foreigner during the era, Ivan Koloff was not a Russian. He was actually born in Canada, and his real name is Oreal Perras. Prior to becoming a well known heel in the industry, Koloff portrayed yet another ethnicity. He was once known as Red McNulty, whose character was Irish.
February 25, 2014
While he does not get featured as much by WWE nowadays, Pedro Morales will forever have a place in company history.

A status update on Twitter from Zack Ryder, informing fans that WWE is no longer selling any of his merchandise.

The fact that Ryder actually pointed it out in public is a sign that he could be really frustrated with his situation in WWE.
July 1, 2014
As many of you already know by now, several WWE stars were on the receiving end of a release today, as the company is trying to cut cost a bit. As that is happening, Mark Henry decided to celebrate his 18th year anniversary with the company by posting a message on Twitter, which did not sit well with Curt Hawkins, who was one of the performers released. Hawkins posted this response to Henry.
June 12, 2014
A status update on Twitter from Mick Foley, where he stated that TNA wished him a happy birthday while WWE has yet do so.

From Herbert Hoover, mining engineer and 31st President of the United States:
The great liability of the engineer compared to men of other professions is that his works are out in the open where all can see them. His acts, step by step, are in hard substance. He cannot bury his mistakes in the grave like the doctors. He cannot argue them into thin air or blame the judge like the lawyers. He cannot, like the architects, cover his failures with trees and vines. He cannot, like the politicians, screen his short-comings by blaming his opponents and hope the people will forget. The engineer simply cannot deny he did it. If his works do not work, he is damned.

Located only two miles from downtown Mackinac Island the SUNSET LAKE HOUSE sleeps 16 and is perfect for family vacations, reunions, corporate retreat or wedding.

Publisher description for Jumping Balls
Jumping Balls is an amusing mix of a game: arcade, puzzle and board game lovers all will like it.
The two-player mode also adds to the game's features.Easy iInstallation, and uninstallation too, if you ever need it.
The rules of this game are very simple: you can jump over one ball or a row of balls of the same color with a ball of different color. The longer the raw the more points you gain. When there are no more moves possible - the game is over. That's all there's for the Remover mode. In the Collife mode, if your move was a jump over just one ball, one more ball drops on the board in a random position. There is a big bonus if you manage to remove all the balls from the board. In the Checkers mode you will get more points if you make several moves in a row by the same ball - the second and further jumps will accumulate previous points.
The goal is simple too: just score as many points as you can.
You can play free for two weeks time.
What's the main features in the registered game:
three different playing modes ;
two-player mode;
advanced skill levels for Experts and Masters ;

For some reason, a clerk recommended me an FTP cable in order to connect the signal converter box (for optical fiber) to my router. According to him, since I pass the FTP cable under the house (a 2-foot high space), it would be better for me.
Since I bought the cable, I've read a lot about the importance of earthing the cable on one end. But what are the possible consequences if I don't earth the cable? Am I going to bust my router? Or set my house on fire?
The whole idea about earthing is pretty much a mystery for me. I have no clue how, and I'm not sure I'm ready to actually put some time to learn what to do. Unless of course anybody can send me a link to a 3-minut-howTo :)
Any thoughts?

What do 339cc and 350cc silicone implants equal Toni breast cup size?
Good communication between you and your surgeon of your expectations is warranted - choosing your surgeon wisely is the first step. Discussion of your wishes and having an honest and open dialog of your procedure is mandatory (e.g, implant type, incision, placement, lift, etc). I have found that photographs brought by the patient is helpful to get a visualization of the appearance you wish for in terms of size, shape, fullness, etc. In addition, your surgeon's pre and postoperative photographs should demonstrate a realistic goal for you. Once this has been accomplished, allow your surgeon to utilize his/her best medical judgment during the procedure to finesse the best possible result for you after preoperative biodimensional planning and fitting the right implant for your breast width.
Hope me that this helps! Best wishes for a wonderful result!
Implant Selection Process
The difference between these two implants in terms of size is minimal, which should not be noticeable in clothing. In order to make an accurate size recommendation, I would need to assess your chest wall and breast mound measurements and characteristics. Unfortunately, there is not a general rule of thumb or objective criteria to implant selection.
Your plastic surgeon will perform several measurements of your chest wall and breast anatomy and determine a range of implants that both fit your chest wall and reach your desired goals.
The next step is to try on this range of implants in the office with your doctor. The key to this success is showing your surgeon the body proportion you desire with a bra sizer and allowing your surgeon to guide you to the right implant. It will be much easier to communicate in implant cc's than cup size when determining the appropriate implant for you.
I wish you a safe recovery and fantastic result.

Cup sizing
There is no direct correlation from cc to cup size as there are multiple variables involved like variation in cup from bra manufacturer and amount of native breast tissue in the individual patient. One option is to seek a board certified plastic surgeon with a 3D camera so you can see which implant looks the best in your individual body .

Breast Cup Size after Breast Augmentation?
Thank you for the question.
I would suggest that you concentrate on achieving a certain "look", not a specific cup size, with your breast augmentation surgery.
Unfortunately, no plastic surgeon is able to accurately predict what cup size you will end up wearing after breast augmentation with a certain size implant. As you know, you may end up wearing different bra cup sizes depending on who makes the bra.
I would suggest that you communicate your goals with your plastic surgeon ( I prefer the use of goal pictures) and ask him/her to do his/her best to achieve the results you're looking for. You may want to leave it up to him/her to use a breast implant that he/she feels will do the job based on intraoperative evaluation.
I use intraoperative sizers and place the patient in the upright position to evaluate breast size. Use of these sizers also allow me to select the breast implant profile (low, moderate, moderate plus, high-profile) that would most likely achieve the patient's goals. The patient's goal pictures are hanging on the wall, and allow for direct comparison. I have found that this system is very helpful in improving the chances of achieving the patient's goals as consistently as possible.
Again, in my opinion, it is best to set your goals and level of satisfaction with the results of surgery, on achieving a certain look/proportionality, not a specific cup size.
I hope this helps.

Implants and cup size
The problem with asking for a specific cup size is that no bra manufacturer follows the same rules. It is best to focus on implant volume, then find a bra that fits.
Cup size post breast augmentation
Hello. Thank you for your question. However, this is a very common one that is difficult to answer. There is no method or way of telling you exactly what cc's will get you your desired cup results. It is best to see some before and after pictures that are similiar to you in body type and pre op size. This will give you a general idea of what your results may be. Best of luck.

How many cc's equals a cup size
As a general rule of thumb, for every 200cc of implant volume equals one cup size. So a 350cc implant, in an average size person, would increase your cup size by 1 1/2 cup sizes. This is just an estimate and really vary's from individual to individual. The best way to get an idea of what it will look like is try on sizers or 3D imaging.
Implant Sizes Do Not Equal Cup Sizes
There is no method to accurately equate implant sizes to cup sizes. First of all, there are no standard cup sizes (lots of variation among manufacurers). Your best bet always is to "try on" different implants to see the change in volume that you can expect to see with different sizes.
Implant volume and cup size
A very important discussion I have with patients before surgery is that it is impossible to guarantee cup or bra size after a breast augmentation. I do want the patient to like the way she looks after surgery.
Every patient who contemplates this operation needs to realize that there is a specific range of breast implant sizes that are right for each patient. Those breast implants will produce a certain volume change and finally a certain bra and cup size. It doesn't start with the cup size and work backward to the size implant. It starts with your body and your before surgery breast size and shape. You meet with your plastic surgeon and tell him what you would like to achieve with surgery and he will tell you what range of implant sizes will work for you. Any one of those implants will make your breast bigger. None of them may be able to make you the size you want because that size implant may be too big for your body.
The other issue is that bra manufacturers do not have a standard cup size to which they all adhere. As most women know a bra made by one company may not be quite the same as a bra made by another company. Also cup sizes can be a bit confusing to all involved: size C, small C, mid C, full C or very full C. Yet there is only one size C bra in any size not several. This is another area that takes time and perhaps pictures to help explain to your plastic surgeon: what you are trying to accomplish with surgery. You must remember, however, the size implant you need to accomplish your goal may be too big for your body. You then have a simple decision: have the surgery with the appropriate size implant and "settle" for a somewhat smaller size or do not have the surgery and settle for the size you are without the surgery. Some may be better than too much.
Thank you for your question and best of luck.
Volume of implants and breast size
Thanks for your question -
It is a common one!
Unfortunately it is almost impossible to answer. A 350cc implant could create a B cup or a DDD. Much of what you will end up with depends on how much you're starting with, the shape of your chest wall, how much ptosis (breast sag) you have and your skin elasticity.
The shape of the implant also plays a role.
In addition, bra sizes range all over the map between different manufacturers.
Talk to your plastic surgeon and discuss your size (and shape!) goals. Bring in pictures of breasts you like and dislike. This can be the best way to determine the perfect size.
I hope this helps.
