Bras can give you saggy boobs

Saggy boobs or breastsAccording to a Swedish doctor (who is referring to American and French research), young girls can get sagging boobs if they use a bra that is too tight.

According to a study where 33 French girls between the age 18-25 were exercising with gymnastics and swimming, only those who didn’t use a bra (88%) would see the effect that the nipple was placed higher than before. On those who exercised with a tight bra, they didn’t see any change.

The doctor says that a constant pressure against the connective tissue that reaches from the breast to the armpit can cause the breast not to develop as normal.

Weird or what? Well, you shouldn’t believe everything you read. Interesting topic though :P

    Wow, random boob fact that I didn’t know, heh! I also didn’t know something else… a friend of mine has a young daughter who has developed rather quickly in the boob department. She was recently told that although she has large boobies, she shouldn’t wear an underwired bra until she’s at least 15 because it can cause problems with growth too.

    Who would have thought that boobs are so fragile…?

    I didn’t know that. I don’t excercise though. I do walk. But I doubt that would cause anything to happen.
