hiya, i was told by my nurse at mya that it can cause you to get a double bubble because the wire indents into the boob?? i had my op on the 30th april, still not wearing underwired bras yet, not worth it if they recommend u not to for a while.

Hi jus a quick one, what is the actual reason we cant wear underwired bras, im 6 weeks now an can only wear underwired couple hours a day, iv bin wearin it longer sometimes.
Any info would be great girls

They all say something different, but i would follow what u've been told, reason being is that if you should have any post operative problems ur ps could blame you for wearing an underwired bra when u shouldn't have etc etc, could be used as a way of not adhering to their aftercare policy because you didn't do as you were 'told' if you know what i mean.

Just something to be mindful of thats all.

You could call and ask them why u can only wear one for a couple of hours a day and when you will be able to wear one 'full time'

Hope that helps

I hope thats not why i have double bubble!!! I was told by ps i could wear normal underwired bra's at six weeks, So i did. When i saw him and i had double bubble he didn't say anything about Why it happened. He just booked me in for a re-opp. How long do you think you should not wear underwired bra's for? How long do they say? Six weeks was hard!!!! Anna

I was told by my ps, that i could wear normal ba's from 6 weeks, I wore underwired bra's from 6 Weeks. I think they all say different things. Anna

i had unders an my nurse said from 6 weeks can wear only for couple hours, so annoyin as all ps say diff things, well im gonna stick to what feel comftable wit. Thanks for replies

I had unders 2. Yea it is annoying ps saying different things. I would stick with what you feel is best!!!! Anna x

hi ya i think its to do with the rubbing on the scars!!
this is what i have been told anyway, not had my ba yet so dont no how long i will be advised not to wear underwired for.
