Your Bod

Are my boobs shrinking?!

I’ve noticed lately that some of my bras aren’t fitting the way they used to. Can my boobs get smaller?

 

The bulk of your breasts is composed of fat cells, so yes, babe, your boobs certainly can get smaller. While there’s no guarantee that dropping weight (or putting weight on) will decrease or increase the size of your breasts, it’s possible that weight loss can make your boobs shrink.

 

It’s also possible that your bras are stretching out. Wash them regularly on a gentle cycle, and hang them or lay them flat to dry. Since bras see a lot of wear ‘n’ tear, they need to be replaced more frequently than panties or other garments. It might be time to head to the store!
