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.
