Q: Does Islam allow a woman to do breast augmentation? I have been through a couple of articles on the internet which says you can, however it depends on your reason for wanting to increase the breast size.
My reason: I am really flat chested, my breasts never grew at all, not even after having two kids. I am married so I'm not doing this to beautify myself for other men, I just really feel uncomfortable and embarrassed and just want to increase my breast size a little so that it can look "normal".

Q: Do you think I can get a fixed (permanent) retainer as opposed to a plastic retainer for my teeth which I can get off and on, just for the simple reason that I feel like a plastic retainer which you take on and off and have to possibly wear forever, will be a nuisance? There have been cases where not wearing your retainer will result in your teeth shifting, which would be a huge waste of money that was spent on braces. I feel like a fixed retainer will be easier for me.
