COMMON FEAR  BUT NO SCIENTIFIC PROOF

Some factors have been considered to increase breast cancer risk. But as of now, there is no evidence to back the claims that antiperspirants or underwire bras can become the cause of breast cancer. The fear is based on the following concerns:

  • Antiperspirant chemicals are absorbed through the skin which build up in the breast and block the release of toxins when you sweat.
  • Underwire bras cause breast cancer because of improper lymph fluid drainage which can get blocked under the breast.

There is no scientific evidence to support either of these fears as the strongest antiperspirant can not block all perspiration. Sweating isn’t the most only way for your body to release toxins. Most cancer-causing substances are removed through urine.  Whereas there are concerns related to chemicals, such as phthalates and parabens which are used for fragrance and preservation, from a whole list of personal care products (including antiperspirants) being absorbed by the body, these chemicals are more unlikely to be the cause of breast cancer.

All products made from artificial material have their own side effects but none have proved so far, by any research, that they are the cause of breast cancer or any other type of breast ailment. However, all these products need to be used as per individual body, skin type and needs.
