While generally considered comfortable, not wearing a bra at night can potentially lead to muscle and breast soreness if you were moving or exercising right before bed without wearing a bra.
Here's a breakdown of why this can occur:
-
Lack of Support: The main issue arises from the lack of support. Without a bra, the breasts' weight can pull on surrounding muscles.
-
Muscle Soreness: According to the provided reference, the weight of your breasts without support can cause the adjacent muscles to become sore and tender.
When is wearing a bra more important?
While avoiding a bra at night is typically fine, wearing one becomes more critical when:
- Exercising: Always wear a supportive sports bra during exercise.
- During the day: The reference suggests that it is essential to wear a bra while moving.
In summary, while often comfortable, consistently going braless, especially after activity, might contribute to breast and muscle discomfort due to a lack of support.
