Question: Has anyone ever researched the possible link of the use of spandex in bras as a cause of breast cancer?
I saw a TV program about the history/manufacture of bras and it was stated that they are made of spandex which is a byproduct of oil, a known carcinogen.
Answers:
they say that about underarm deodorant too. The carcinogenic substance would have to pass into the body tissues, which I very much doubt can occur via your bra. So many scare stories around. We are way more at risk walking down a street full of car exhaust fumes, no matter what kind of bra we're wearing! I really would not worry about this. :)
Only about a thousand times...all negative. To be totally safe, just go bra-less.
