Recommended women's health underwear

Supportive wire-free soft support bras, multi-strength seamless sports bras, pure cotton supportless sleep bras - there is no such thing as "one size fits all". The premise of all health is to adapt to your breast shape, daily scenes and current physical condition.

Two years ago, I followed the Internet celebrity's push-up underwire model. The underwire was as hard as a thin iron ring, and the groove was deep enough to put coins. After wearing it for six months, I went for a physical examination and found that the breast hyperplasia was grade three. After the doctor read the physical examination report, the first sentence asked, "Have you been wearing tight underwear all year round?" ”, I realized at that time that the behavior of secretly unbuttoning the back buckle and pulling the shoulder straps at the work station every afternoon was not at all because the underwear had become loose after being worn for a long time, but because I had chosen the wrong one from the beginning.

A friend used to argue with me, saying, "Things without steel rings cannot support my breasts at all, and my breasts will definitely sag." In fact, this statement is too absolute. Nowadays, qualified soft-support bras are made of materials such as jelly strips and high-density side gauze. Their supporting capacity is no worse than that of soft steel rings, and they will not cause rib pain. I am a C cup, with a little extra nipple expansion. Last year I bought a domestic soft support made for maternity and baby lines. The jelly strips on the side are 4 cm wide. I wore it for a whole day of offline meetings. I even slept at the workstation for half an hour at noon. When I took it off after get off work, there was no red mark at all. When I wore an underwire model before, the mark on my ribs did not disappear until the next day. Of course, if you have large breasts above the G cup, it is safer to choose a soft steel ring model that is suitable for large breasts. You don’t have to follow the trend of no steel rings. Your comfort is the most important.

Speaking of comfort, I once had a joke from a friend who loves running marathons. She thought sports bras were too ugly, so she wore everyday soft supports to run a half-marathon. Within 10 kilometers, her breasts were torn by the shoulder straps. The pain caused her to quit the race midway and went to a clinic for disinfection. Sports bras actually have more pitfalls. There are currently two factions arguing fiercely on the Internet. One faction says "the tighter the sports bra, the better, as long as it doesn't sway", and the other faction says "tight compression of the breasts is bad for the breasts". In fact, they are not on the point - it depends on what kind of exercise you do. If you only do low-intensity exercise such as yoga and brisk walking, you can choose one with a thin mold cup and wider shoulder straps. You don’t have to buy one that wraps you up so much that you can’t breathe. ； If you are going to do Pamela dancing, playing badminton or even horse racing with medium to high intensity, you have to choose a full-cup bra with anti-slip strips on the lower circumference. The key point is to "hold it up without shaking", not "press it into a flat plate". I bought an internet celebrity sports bra before, and it was hard to breathe after wearing it. After dancing for 10 minutes, my chest felt tight, so I just left it idle. Later, I changed to a stretchy molded cup style, which is so comfortable.

Oh, by the way, there is another topic that has been debated for many years: Can I wear underwear while sleeping? I have always heard the saying that "wearing underwear to sleep can cause breast cancer". I specifically checked the public guidelines of the Department of Breast Cancer. Currently, there is no clear clinical evidence to prove this conclusion. It all depends on individual needs. My best friend gave birth to a baby last year, and her breasts swelled to almost an E-cup during breastfeeding. It hurt when she turned over at night, and she couldn't sleep. She later wore a pure cotton supportless sleep bra, which has no wires or strips. It's just a soft cotton fabric that can hold the bra a little. She told me that she was finally able to sleep through the night, and there was no milk blockage. But if you are an A cup and always feel stuffy when wearing underwear while sleeping, then you don’t have to wear them at all. No one stipulates that you must wear them when sleeping, let alone believe the nonsense that "wearing sleep underwear can improve external expansion" is purely IQ tax.

Finally, I have to say with all my heart, I have been through too many pitfalls before. Things like "adjustable underwear can shrink secondary breasts", "latex underwear can enlarge breasts" and "magnet underwear can cure breast hyperplasia" are all gimmicks promoted by merchants. The accessory breasts are either natural breast tissue or fat, which cannot be tightened back. Wearing those tight adjustable breasts for a long time will compress the lymph and blood vessels in the armpits, which is not worth the loss. There are also "natural latex underwear" that cost more than ten yuan. They are basically made of synthetic materials, and the breathable holes are all pressed out. In the summer, wearing them for half a day will cause prickly heat on the chest. If you really want to buy a latex style, remember to read the ingredient list. The latex content must be at least 90% to be considered qualified.

In fact, there are so many rules for choosing healthy underwear. My criteria for choosing underwear now are very simple: wear it for 8 hours, there are no painful marks on the body, and you don’t always want to reach out to pull the shoulder straps to unbuckle the back buckle. Sometimes you even forget to wear underwear when you are busy. Then this is the most suitable for you, and it is more reliable than all the recommended lists on the Internet.
