Often, there are many types of curiosities about bra about bra. They always see it as a mysterious and attractive fabric. But the reality is that wearing a bra, especially for women, is not always as comfortable as it is shown in advertisements. If the bra is tight, it becomes uncomfortable to wear. Sometimes it feels suffocated, and if the summer season is, the problem increases further. Women who wear wire bras have more problems in summer because it increases both sweat and discomfort.

This rumor started in 1995 in the 1990s, Sydney Ross Singer and Soma Grissier wrote a book called ‘Dressed to Kill’. It claimed that underwire bra lymphatic system (body waste and toxin extract process) without any scientific evidence.

This is not a scientific research

After this book, this thing spread rapidly and even today such things are seen in WhatsApp messages, Facebook posts and Instagram reels. But the truth is that till date no scientific study has proved that wearing a bra causes cancer.

What do scientists and doctors say?

American Cancer Society and National Cancer Institute have clearly stated that bra types, tightness or fit have no relation with breast cancer. In 2014, Seattle’s Fred Hachinson Cancer Research Center made a study on 1500 women. It was also found that there is no relationship between tight bra and breast cancer. The study was published in a journal called Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.

So is not the tight bra not harmful?

It has nothing to do with cancer, but there can be some more damage to wearing tight bras, such as pain in the back and shoulders, body posture (Posture), problems in blood flow, red marks on the skin and burning and dark marks on the shoulders. If you have any of these problems after wearing a bra, it would be better to change the size and fit of the bra. Wearing a bra, whether it is tight or underwier, is not breast cancer. This is just a rumor, which has no scientific basis. But for the comfort and health of your body, it is necessary to choose the right size and the right fit bra.
