38 is for the band size and has nothing at all to do with your breasts. Have you tried a full coverage or full cup bra in a 36C? These are designed for this reason, because most bras are made to fit boobs that are round, rather than full. If you're hanging out at the sides and also on the top then increasing to a 36D would be your answer, otherwise just get a full cup. I have the same problem as well. I don't increase the cup size but go to a full cup.

The number portion of the bra size has to do with the circumference of your torso just below your breasts. If the band on your current bras fit properly, then stick with the 36. If it's all stretched out, you might need a 38.
The letter portion of the bra size has to do with the difference between the circumference of your torso and the circumference of your chest at the largest part of your breasts.
You might need to go to a 36D or 36DD, but your best bet is to be fitted by someone that works in the lingerie store.

If it's still comfy around your boobs, you need a 36d. You boobs grow some. If your body needs more room though, get 38d. You can try bra's on at the store.

I would go to a department store or Victorias Secret just to get a free fitting done. It will make a world of difference.

If you are too shy to go to a department store that do fittings (Marks and Spencers) then look at instuctions in the back of fashion catalogues.
