If you're a woman and made it here, i congratulate you - and promise to make it worthwhile.

Before anything, you need to know that saggy breasts can be very normal and can be caused by many things.

It is okay to be body conscious and want your breasts to stand firm, instead of always needing bra support.

But there are things you need to know, so you do not get misled.

WHY DO I HAVE SAGGY BREASTS AT A YOUNG AGE?!

WHY DO THEY KEEP FALLING?!

You will be getting the truth now, here are reasons why some women have saggy breasts and others don't.

1. AGE

This hurts, but is the most common culprit!

The older a woman gets, the more saggy her breasts will look.

It can be very frightening to see your body change and lose its youthfulness over a space of time - but it is natural!

As you age, the ligaments supporting your pair from within loses its strength and overstretches.

From this, it is usually expected that a younger woman should have firm upstanding bust than a woman in middle age.

2. GENETICS

In the picture below, you will find bust sizes of two women.

The woman on the right has a fuller and firm bust that is very contrasting to that on the left - even at an older age!

Know this! A woman may have saggy breasts because of her genetics, it may not matter her age or whatever natural remedy that is available - plastic surgery can although help.

Some are born that way and this is why as a woman, you should learn to love your body regardless.

3. SIZE AND SHAPE

Having large boobs can be a blessing and have its downsides too.

A woman with a smaller more rounded looking breast anatomy will hardly ever worry about it sagging.

On the other hand, a larger one will have a hard time staying firm and can droop very easily.

Many ladies you see online with large busts have theirs sagging as well - they just use the right bras and snap at good angles to make it look like they have the best of both worlds!

4. DRAMATIC WEIGHT GAIN/WEIGHT LOSS

Yes! Losing or gaining so much weight in a short time can have an impact on how the breasts will be shaped.

In the case of losing drastic amounts of weight, the breast can shrink too fast and sag because it contains so much fat that is being lost rapidly.

When gaining so much weight, it can stretch out too fast and sag because fat is being added rapidly.

To avoid this, maintain a healthy weight or lose/gain steadily.

5. MULTIPLE PREGNANCIES

If you dream of having so many kids, this may trigger you!

When a woman gets pregnant, her hormones prepare her for nursing by enlarging her breasts - no matter how small.

After nursing, it may go down slightly.

Once this cycle of swelling and shrinking becomes frequent - due to getting pregnant so many times.

It can eventually cause the breast to sag!

6. SMOKING

Surprised? Don't be.

Smoking does not just affect the lungs but the skin as well - it can cause the skin to lose its elasticity.

If that happens, the skin covering the breast can overstretch and sink downwards.

For boobs and health sake, avoid smoking!

7. EXERCISING WITHOUT SUPPORT

There are exercises that put so much strain on the breast if a fitted bra is not worn e.g. running, skipping etc.

This is why in general, a woman is advised to wear properly fitting bras - especially if she has a big bust and an active lifestyle.

For exercises, sport bras are more preferable to wear.
