Channel News Asia (CNA) released an article on 4 December 2025 that lays out what breast health specialists have been saying for years — and it aligns completely with what we advocate at Supporting Eve.

Below is a tidy summary of the key takeaways worth highlighting:


🔹 A well-fitted bra provides essential structural support

A good bra reduces strain on ligaments, supports breast tissue, improves posture, and can significantly ease breast pain — especially for breastfeeding women and those with fuller busts.

🔹 Bras do not increase breast cancer risk

Population-based studies show no link between bra-wearing and breast disease.

🔹 Support matters most during movement

High-impact activity without proper support increases stress on Cooper’s ligaments and can accelerate sagging over time, particularly for larger busts.

🔹 Fit isn’t just physical — it affects confidence, comfort and mood

A well-fitted bra improves breast movement control, enhances posture and can genuinely shift how you feel in your body.

🔹 Sagging is natural

Ageing, hormones, pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight changes and even sun exposure all reduce elasticity over time.
A bra won’t stop sagging completely, but the right one can meaningfully reduce cumulative stress on breast structures.


And perhaps most importantly:

There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Bra-wearing is personal — but wearing the wrong size can cause long-term discomfort.

This is why professional fittings matter.

At Supporting Eve, we specialise in expert, evidence-based, fit-by-sight fittings that prioritise support, comfort and breast health — not myths or marketing. Women deserve clear information, real choice, and fittings rooted in anatomy and science.

We’re glad to see mainstream media reinforcing this conversation.
