Question posed by Storm: Can wearing a bra cause breast cancer when your YOUNG?
Im 13 and i sleep in my bra most of the time but people tell me not to because it causes breast cancer. My grandma said it didnt but my aunt told me it did so i re searched it. It says it can but what if i only do it when im young? or if i sleep in one thats a sports bra or one without wire?

i’m 13 too and i’m pretty sure that wearing a pice of clothing over your boobs that simply touch your skin can cause a deadly disease like cancer.
your fine girl.
I’ve never heard of such a thing. I would guess it’s a rumor, and the link below says that it’s a rumor too.
my cuzins use to tell me that all the time but of course i didnt pay no mind and continued to where my bra wile sleeping and now i have huge boobs at the age of 14 idk if that may be part of the reason or if i came out like my mother but its not very likely to get cancer just for sleepig in a bar daily
it coul give u breast cancer wen ur young too cuz my sister is a doctor and she knows all about it it coul coz breast cancer becuz wen u sleep n a bra or where a bra it dnt let ur boobs breath if tht makes sense cuz it makes them squished or pushed 24/7 and thts nt good im 13 also and wen i was twelve and younger i luved sleepin in my bra till my sista told me i coul get breast cancer soo if i were u i woul nt wear bras at nigh only if u hav 2
Wearing a bra does not cause cancer. Everyone you read online may not be true. Take that in to consideration. At 13, I would not be worrying about sleeping with a bra on. However, if you insist on doing it I would suggest a sports bra so it is most comfortable.
Breast cancer is caused by the abnormal mutation of cells in the breasts. Most women at risk are those with family history of this disease. No concrete studies have shown any relation of wearing a bra with breast cancer.
If you wear a bra all day take it off at night and massage your breasts to stimulate healthy blood flow. By no means should you wear a bra at night! Don’t strangle your breasts!
As for the cancer correlation. There isn’t a strong enough case to support that bras cause breast cancer. However every site I’ve been states it’s healthy to have blood flow in your breasts. If you wear a bra then the natural bounce that stimulates blood flow that flushes out toxins from your breasts, is stifled (that’s why it’s necessary to massage them yourself).
