Choose a bra made with breathable (and preferably organic) fabric. Organic cotton and bamboo are good choices. Watch out for latex straps or nickel closures, which can be irritating to those who are sensitive to these materials.
Do bras affect breast health?
Is this true or not?” There is no credible research showing a link between wearing, or not wearing, a bra and developing breast cancer. It has been claimed that underwire bras cause breast cancer by obstructing the lymph flow, however, there is no scientific evidence to support this theory.
Which bra type is best for daily use?
A well-fitted T-shirt bra is best for everyday purposes. It provides the right amount of padding and coverage and comes with and without the underwire that one can choose from.
Which bra is best for breast cancer?
In the first year after breast surgery (such as a mastectomy or lumpectomy), it’s best to wear a bra that has:
- soft seams.
- a wide underband (the band that goes under the cups and round your back)
- deep front and side panels.
- full cups.
- cup separation (the centre of the bra between the cups should sit flat on your chest)
