I have a lot of stretch marks on my breasts. what can this be from is my bra too tight or what is it?

The stretch marks : Are likely due to expansion of the breast (with tearing of tissues). Doubt that a too tight bra is the cause. However, it is not healthy to wear a bra that is too tight. Up to 85% of american women are wearing incorrect bra size. Encourage you to take care of your breasts by going to a bra specialty store for a professional fitting ; help w design selection. You will also be taught how to properly.
