Ill-fitting bras can easily lead to breast hyperplasia.

A bra is a close friend to women. It makes the curves of a woman more voluptuous and her figure more charming. However, if this "friend" is not suitable, it may unintentionally get you into trouble. Recently, a survey of women conducted by the Shanghai Women's Disease Recovery Committee showed that 79.3% of women wear bras that are unsuitable for them, mainly due to the wrong size or wearing tight bras for long periods without adjusting them. Therefore, gynecological experts remind us that wearing an unsuitable bra can induce breast diseases such as breast hyperplasia.

Breast hyperplasia has nothing to do with breast size

Huiru's several female friends all have breast hyperplasia conditions. Huiru secretly rejoiced in her relatively small breasts, thinking she wouldn't develop breast hyperplasia. But during a company-organized physical examination, it was discovered that Huiru also had breast hyperplasia. She was very puzzled - isn't breast hyperplasia more common among women with larger breasts? Why did she, too, develop breast disease?

"Breast hyperplasia has no relation to breast size. The size of the breast depends on the amount of fat. Even men might experience breast hyperplasia," said the breast expert. "Breast hyperplasia is related to the hormone levels in the body; the higher the level of estrogen, the greater the chance of developing breast hyperplasia."

The breast expert said that women with breast hyperplasia who also exhibit any of the following conditions should be cautious: first, they've experienced breast hyperplasia for a long time; second, the hyperplastic nodules feel very obvious when touched; third, their age falls within the high-risk period of 40 to 60 years old; fourth, there is a family history. If a woman exhibits these factors, she should pay close attention to changes in her body and be alert to breast cancer.

Unsuitable bras can trigger breast hyperplasia

"Both too small and too large bras can lead to breast diseases," said the breast expert. There are abundant blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves distributed across the breasts, which provide nutrition and promote metabolism in the breast area. If the bra is too small, especially if the underwire is hard and tight, it will affect blood circulation and supply, causing breast ischemia and spasm, compressing the lymph nodes in the breast, making it difficult for toxins produced there to be discharged, thus leading to breast hyperplasia. A bra that is too small is bad, but so is one that is too large. When a bra is too big, the breasts can move up and down inside, which can similarly lead to breast hyperplasia.
