Question: How do I know what size?

One of the frequently asked questions we get is – What size binder do I need? How do I measure?

It’s actually pretty simple!

All measurements (and sizes) in the Hysterectomy Store are described in inches. Using a tape measure, measure around your abdomen, below your belly button and above your hips, specifically across your incision area and not your natural waist.

Abdominal Binder Sizes

  • 24″-30″ fits our “Small”
  • 30″-36″ fits our “Medium”
  • 36″-42″ fits our “Large”
  • 42″-48″ fits our “X-Large”
  • 48″-54″ fits our “2X-Large”

Pocket Binder Sizes

  • 31-36″ fits our Extra-Small/Small
  • 35″- 50″ fits our Medium/Large
  • 48″- 58″ fits our XL/2XL (add $4.00)

Can’t decide which size? Or are you on the border between two? Make sure to take swelling into account. But you should also know that the binders are capable of stretching as they are made from elastic (but no latex).

We do offer value pricing if you want to purchase two of the same size or different sizes.  However be aware of our return policy. We can not accept merchandise that is not in its original packaging.

Note: We do not accept returns on opened binders so we ask that you measure and order carefully.
