4000CC makes no sense. For those who don't know how bra sizes work, the number correlates to rib cage size and the letter is the breast proportional to the rib cage directly under the breasts. An A-cup is someone who's breast circumference is 4-5" bigger than their rib cage circumference. AA and AAA are for women with breasts smaller than that. Each higher letter is for an inch more breast circumference. And there is no CC, they go AAA, AA, A, B, C, D, DD, E, F, FF, G. Someone who is a 4000CC, if a CC existed, would have an under breast circumference of 3,996 inches and a breast circumference of 4,003 inches. So just massively, massively, inhumanely fat (multiple times rounder than a blue whale) with no really visible difference between their breasts and rib cage.

Aside from the CC meaning cubic centimeters, There are more sizes than you listed.There is DDD and DDDD, H, I, and J also apparently JJ. I'm sure there's more. I currently wear a 38I but have worn DDD and DDDD. They're a pain in the ass to find and usually I can only find my size in Wacoal bras. I'm no whale but I would maybe concede baby seal lol.

I was totally wrong about the CC, but in bra sizes a US DDD would be a UK E and a US DDDD is a UK F. UK sizes go up to L with doubles for every second letter from D. It's tough to find anything bigger than an F Cup or with a smaller number than a 34 outside of in specialist shops. Small number, high letter is especially tough to get in normal shops.

It's sometimes hard to find in the specialty shops, too. At this point it's probably easier to get insurance to pay for a breast reduction than it is to find a bra that fits.
