Adolescent girls need to protect their breasts

Reasonable selection of bra

The main function of a bra is to protect the breasts. Reasonable use of a bra can alleviate external impact and reduce the vibration of the breast itself: it has a clear supporting effect and prevents sagging. In terms of time, it is best to start wearing a bra around the age of 17, so the contour of a woman's chest is basically fixed and the breast development is approaching maturity.

After the breast development is basically finalized, guide young girls to wear suitable bras in a timely manner. Girls are about 15 years old and their breast development is basically fixed, but there are significant personal differences. Generally speaking, a soft ruler can measure from the upper edge of the breast to the lower edge through the nipple, and when the distance between the upper and lower edges exceeds 16 centimeters, a bra should be worn.
