How to slow down sagging of breast? does wearing a bra help or worsen it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Help: Unsupported breasts, especially if large, put a lot of pressure on the ligament that holds the breast up called cooper's ligament. A bra especially, when exercising, keeps the breasts from "suing you for non support" and is usually an "uplifting" experience.
