  • NOT TRUE! It has only ever been suggested that sleeping with a bra on at night can prevent sagging. BUT, what you have to remember is that your breasts aren't muscle, they are ligaments and so unless you have small breasts and were talking anything from a C cup downwards, then sagging is going to be inevitable. Gravity will pull them down, and its the bra that carries on to give you that lift and support.

    And even if in some cases wearing a bra in bed can prevent sagging, its only stalling it, the only people who can have big breasts that don't sag are those who have them paid for...and even still, sagging can sometimes occur.

    My sisters range from massive to just about right, with me being the biggest, and I tell ya now, each and everyone of them suffers from gravity, the ones who seem to get a way with it, are the ones with broader shoulders, because if your shoulders are broad and you have big boobs, they will appear to sit rather then droop...HOWEVER, its an illuison..believe me.

    • Thank You :D

  • im not sure about the effect of growth on breasts. I heard that it can cause breast cancer if you wear it at night.. but what I do is wear a sports bra or a tank that has a built in bra... but I do stay away from my regular wire bras at night.

    • Thanks

  • Apparently wearing a bra at night can keep your boobs from sagging. I find wearing a bra to sleep is really uncomfortable, so I wouldn't. But yeah.

  • Being somewhat a student of anatomy (I studied Ergonomics as a minor for an industrial design course I took in the 90's...) I can tell you this much: Breasts are nothing but sacks that contain mammory glands and fat cells. The only way you can get them bigger is to increase fat levels in the chest area. However, not wearing a bra while sleeping CAN cause your skin to stretch due to malformation and weight distribution... Have you ever seen a woman that has stretch marks on their brests? That is from a lack of consistant proper support. Moreover, there are no internal structures to maintain a shape. Given the property of gravity, and the fact that brests are little more than blobs of jelly encased in flesh, gravity dictates that they shall sag without proper soupport.

    In other words, they won't get bigger, but will get floppy faster.

  • my girlfriend does. and I don't think itll actually affect your size. the only bra that changes your size are the type of bra you used. such as a push up or victorias secret "bombshell"

  • it only sags earlier! but your skin has to breath from time to another! its beauty talk :)

    • Thank you, I guess guys don't understand that girls breast need to breathe, their more worried about it sagging lol

    • lo00o0o0o0o0o0ol hehehehehehee

  • Nope,

    It is best not to wear a bra to bed cause they need to breathe. Although people with big breast hurts their back so they wear a bra. But it don't effect the growth of the size. not that I know of anyways

    • Thank You =]

    • No worries

    • But it does effect shape.

  • I has a bra fitting and apparently it's dangerous to always wear a bra. You're breasts need time to breathe and they told me' to not wear one at night. If the bra in anway digs in, it can damage the tissue x

  • no, my boobs are pretty behemoth :P

    • hehehe thas good 2 hear :))

  • I heard it makes boobs sag earlier

    • Well, if you sleep braless... If you sleep without a bra, gravity takes over, misforming breasts, causing saggage.. But if you wear support...

    • no I meant that if you don't wear a bra it make them sag earlier not when you wear a bra but I think its a risk anyway so ill wear it 24/7

  • lol wearing a bra while sleeping doesn't effect the size of your boobs at all. It just helps keep them unsaggy.

  • no. they only cause your boobs not to sag
