HEALTH BOG - Parts of the body most affected by gravity turns breast. Even since the breasts begin to grow in the chest of the teens, breasts are potentially decreased. And, in fact, not many things that can keep the breasts in place.


According to expert and specialist breast surgeon, Ian Laidlaw, from Frimley Park Hospital, Surrey, breasts can decrease serious psychological effect for us. "The greatest part of women's femininity is breast. Sagging breasts that's something unpredictable, but can provide a profound effect. When they are not able to control changes in the breast, they will feel inferior, distorted body image, feeling unattractive, and worthless, "he said.
In the medical world, breasts sag conditions (called ptosis) occurs in three stages. In the budding breasts, the nipple is usually located above the line where the crease under the breast meets the chest (inframammary fold). In stage two, the nipple is about 2.5 to 7.5 cm below the point. Then in the third stage, the breast will depend more than 3 cm below it. Nipple itself will face down. Women with large breasts, nipples will decline 10-11 cm throughout his life, approached the waist line.
So what could be causing breast shape change, then decrease? Let's look at some possibilities.
Breast ability to remain in place depends on the genes (1) that regulate how much fat, glands and connective tissue contained therein. Generally, the more connective and glandular tissue you have, the faster and the more "float" your breasts. In addition, the size (2) also affects how fast your breasts. The bigger, the more tense the skin and supporting connective tissue, so it will stretch permanently when pressed continuously.
Breast appearance is also influenced by the hormone estrogen (3), female sex hormones, which initially also makes the breasts grow. Oestrogen stimulates the development of a network of milk ducts. Each month, as the menstrual cycle, estrogen levels rise to prepare our bodies to face the potential pregnancy. One effect, stimulates breast tissue by making it swell and retain fluid.
After menopause, when estrogen levels decline, ducts and mammary gland begins to shrink so that the breast feels empty. Which makes the breast tissue shrinks too fast and is replaced by fat, becomes heavier and less able to withstand gravity.


Changes in body weight (4) can also affect breast slack. As you know, the breast consists of fat and mammary glands. Seventy percent of fat mixed with breast gland to form itself. The rest are in the layer of fat under the skin. Fat thickness is what tends to fluctuate as your weight increases or decreases.
If this layer is dramatically thickened and thinned again due to weight up and down, it will stretch the skin layer supporting permanently. As a result, the breast was getting down. When fat is heavier, more difficult to support.
Not because breastfeedingBeyond our expectations, breastfeeding does not cause breasts to decrease. According to research, the pregnancy is (5) which causes the breasts can decrease. Therefore, during pregnancy, the mammary gland will expand and contract. As was mentioned earlier, the larger the breast, the more tense the skin and connective tissue support. The skin will be stretched permanently.
An American study involving 132 women who intend to breast enlargement or firming, more than half are never breastfed at least one child for an average of nine months. Apparently, there was no difference in the rate of breast laxity among women who had never breastfed or not.
"Women should consider that breastfeeding, especially for the health of the baby, it is much more important than its effect on the breast," said Laidlaw.
