I am a size 12/14 ( 71 kg ) but reading advice I brought the medium ( 10/12 ) and these are quite large for me but have been lovely for post Op, so soft and pull up right over tummy & hold a sanitary towel firmly in place. I'm going to order a size smaller now for more support for the coming weeks . worth the cost for the comfort

Ordered a pair of support pants to try out in readyness, accidently ordered a size smaller whoops! but they fit perfectly!! so if you are on the small side of your size go down to the next one :-) Thought it may be handy to know. xx

I tried all sorts of pants from that well known high street store where most of us get our pants from! I could not find anything which did not dig in somewhere.
These pants are extremely well made and lots of thought has gone into them and I shall be wearing mine for a very long time because they are so comfortable and have support in all of the right places. They will be really great just for normal wear beyond my recuperation time (perhaps not a fashion statement) but they would be brilliant under a dress or at the gym or with jeans to protect your waist from digging waist bands.
Size:
I did have difficulty deciding. I am a 12/14 so I could not decide whether to go for a 10/12 or a 14/16. I opted for the 10/12. They are definitely a 10/12 and the elastic is a little tight round my legs (I do have large legs. Now I have worn them for a few days I do not notice so I might have been just the shock of wearing pants!! I am pleased I didn't go for the 14/16 though because I am pretty certain they would have soon been too big.
I bought a white pair and a black pair and am now seriously considering buying some more because I can't imagine wearing anything else.

Purchased this support pant and have found it a very comfortable but supportive pant. Gives enough support in the abdomen but is soft and comfortable as well. No digging into the legs and is very high above the belly button to just under where my bra starts. Wish I had bought a couple of pairs as I find it more comfortable than the Support Band.
