Question 1

how do i keep my breast firm locally?

Accepted Answer

Breast support: You need to insure  that the bra that you are wearing is  correctly sized & the bra design is  adequate for your use. Up to 85% of women in america are wearing an incorrect bra size. Encourage you to go to a specialty bra shop for proper fitting and a bra that will fit your needs.Breast care is important.

Question 2

will standing on my head make my breasts firmer and make them higher or do i have to get surgery?

Headache only: Standing on your head will give you a headache but do nothing for your breasts. If you wish to have larger breasts, then surgery would be the only way I am aware of.

Question 5

do breasts firm up after losing weight?

Accepted Answer

Not exactly: There is shrinkage of the fat cells in the breasts themselves, and there can be shrinkage of other fat cells deep to the breast tissue.

Question 6

how do you keep your breasts firm after having a baby?

Accepted Answer

Breast lift: Breasts go through many changes after breast feeding, with the most common being some degree of sagging and volume loss. If you are happy with the size then a breast lift would work, and there are several ways of doing that. Implants are a good choice for restoring fullness to the upper part of the breasts for a perky look. Nonsurgical approaches will unfortunately be ineffective.

Question 7

one breast firmer/harder than other around the top edge, is this normal? scared it's cancer.

Accepted Answer

Probably needs check: You should see your provider. An exam is the only way to find out. Your provider may order and imaging study.

Question 8

how to know what exercises can i do to make my breasts firmer?

Accepted Answer

Support & stable wt: There is no magic wand to make or keep your breasts firm. However pregnancy with nursing are the primary causes of breast laxity and ptosis followed by fluctuations in weight. If you already have large breasts, there is weak evidence to suggest ongoing supportive wear (even at night) may help to minimize laxity of the breast ligaments responsible for breast support.

Question 9

how long does breast firmness associated with mastitis last?

Accepted Answer

4-6 weeks: Once the abscess is treated (drainage and antibiotics), there can be residual lumpiness that is inflammed tissue.  This can take at least 4-6 weeks to resolve and feel like "normal" lumpy breast tissue.

Question 10

how do you increase your breast firmness naturally by breastfeeding?

Accepted Answer

Milk ducts: Breast firmness occurs by the increase in breast volume by the production of milk and the storage of the milk in the glands.  Furthermore an increase in water volume as a result of pregnancy also increases breast mass.  Thus the breast skin becomes more taut and firm as a consequence.
