There was once a survey that showed that if the chest size of women in the world was ranked, Russia would be the first country, while we Chinese women were at the bottom with an average A cup.
However, as an important organ for feeding offspring: chest, it is really not only used to distinguish the positive from the negative.
Healthy breasts can not only secrete milk during lactation, but also be an important source of beauty and self-confidence for women. More importantly, breasts may also be a [barometer] of body hormone secretion, which may reflect many health problems.
Therefore, the following ten questions about breasts, whether male or female, need to be known:
1. Different breasts on both sides? It’s normal
In a small study, 44% of women complained that their breasts on one side were significantly smaller than those on the other.
If nipple size and chest shape are to be considered, up to 88% of women feel that there are obvious differences between the two sides.
2. Always dissatisfied with chest size? It’s normal
Less than one-third of women are satisfied with the size and shape of their breasts.
According to statistics, the most plastic surgery performed in the United States in 2013 was breast augmentation. Compared with 2000, the number of people doing breast filling increased by 37%, while the number of people doing breast lifting even increased by 70%.
3. Failed to enlarge breasts by all kinds of means? It’s normal
Massage, essential oil, soya-bean milk, papaya, oral health care products and so on all have no breast enlargement effect in what.
In fact, large breasts and small breasts are affected by many factors, and breast size has never been a standard to measure breast health and function.
Women’s beauty comes more from their confidence in their bodies, so stop worrying about big breasts and small breasts!
4. Hair on nipple edge? It’s normal
Some women will find a small amount of hair beside their nipples. Don’t worry, this is normal.
If you feel that the hair growing beside your nipples affects your appearance, or you hate this phenomenon, you can cut it off with small scissors. However, do not shave it with a razor or pluck it with tweezers, which will increase the risk of endogenous hair and inflammation of hair follicles.
5. Insisting on wearing underwear will sagging breasts? It’s normal
In fact, the biggest function of underwear is to make us look better on the outside and avoid the embarrassment of “excitation” on the chest. It is equivalent to underpants in terms of efficacy and does not have the function of health care.
The main reason for sagging breasts lies in external gravity. God is also fair. While being envied, large-breasted beauties are also greatly affected by gravity, and the risk of relative sagging is greater than that of flat-breasted girls.
In fact, not only the chest, all parts of the body will sagging, just as we can’t think underpants can prevent hip sagging, masks can prevent facial relaxation, bras can’t prevent chest sagging.
6. Always feel that you have chosen the wrong underwear? It’s normal
Because, in fact, less than 1/4 of the women who really chose suitable underwear.
More than 85% of women are actually wearing the wrong cup size. This may lead to insufficient breast support, leading to a series of problems, including poor posture, neck and back pain, and even affecting nerves in hands and shoulders.
The size of the chest can change greatly in different periods. For example, before and after losing weight, before and after menopause and before and after childbirth, women’s breasts will not only have obvious differences in size, but also have compactness. Therefore, underwear with different supporting forces is needed in different periods.
Before buying underwear, be sure to try it on.
7. Is it unhealthy to have accessory milk? In fact, this is quite normal.
Generally speaking, axillary bulge is most likely to have two situations:
- Fatty lumps: Especially in obese people, the proportion of this kind of situation is higher. Accessory mammary glands: this has nothing to do with their own fat, thin and even gender. It is a congenital abnormality of mammary glands.
Since accessory milk is congenital, it has nothing to do with the way we wear bras, age, body, etc.
8. Men also get breast cancer? It’s normal
Like women, men have breast tissue in their breasts.
The growth of breast tissue is regulated by hormone concentration in human body, and estrogen level will stimulate breast tissue hyperplasia after rising. And men also have estrogen secretion in the body, but under normal circumstances androgen is dominant, so men’s breast tissue basically will not develop.
No matter whether it is congenital factors or acquired factors, if it leads to male hormone deficiency and excessive secretion of estrogen, such men are more likely to suffer from breast cancer.
9. Chest discomfort, sorry to go to the hospital? This is not normal
Breast diseases except acute mastitis and a few other cases, most breast diseases do not have any symptoms. If self-examination can be carried out correctly and regularly, it is helpful for the early detection of breast cancer. When the following conditions are found inadvertently or in self-examination, they should go to the hospital in time for early diagnosis and treatment.
However, many people find their breasts uncomfortable and are embarrassed to go to the hospital. Instead, they went into the beauty salon for [recuperation] and [dredging]. The result of doing so can only be to delay formal treatment.
Don’t panic when you feel uncomfortable, let alone choose unreliable beauty salons. Remember:
If you have any questions, consult a professional doctor.
