Abstract objective: This study aimed to quantify the breast support wear and buying habits of young women and to evaluate the factors affecting their use of sports bras in physical activity.
Design: Get research results from self
Manage the Mail survey and post it to participants after obtaining verbal consent through random telephone recruitment.
Participants: 413 women aged 20 to 35 were recruited from New South Wales, Australia.
Results: returned from (65%)
The survey shows that only 41% of respondents currently wear packaged sports bras in sports activities, mainly because they are not aware of the importance of good breast support in sports activities.
Bra size is a predictor of the use of sports bras, and participants with large breasts are more than twice as likely to wear sports bras as smaller participants
Double breast.
Conclusion: The conclusion is that although the encapsulated sports bra has been shown to be effective in reducing breast movement and associated movement
Causing breast discomfort, these bras are not the most common breast support options for young women in sports.
It is recommended that all women, regardless of the size of their breasts, be educated to understand the importance of wearing a good dress
Install and support bras during physical activity to reduce excessive pressure on the structure of the breast tissue and associated breast discomfort.
With the increasing attention to obesity in modern society, it is essential to encourage people to participate in sports activities.

In fact, a report found that as many as 70% of female athletes complained about sports

6 provide this limited support, if not, especially during trunk movement, the breast tissue moves relatively freely on the chest.
Although the medical significance of excessive breast movement and the resulting breast pain is not clear, in fact, breast pain may occur during exercise, indicating that the internal breast structure may suffer some damage.
This possible breast injury and the negative effects of lack of physical activity due to exercise on health
Causing breast discomfort should attract the attention of health professionals.
Due to the limited anatomical support within the female breast, it is generally recommended to reduce breast movement and associated breast discomfort with external support in the form of a bra.
The study has confirmed that,
Sports bras designed, such as packaged bras (
Each breast is supported in a separate cup; see fig 1)
, More effectively limiting this movement and associated breast discomfort than a standard fashion bra or crop top, the latter attempts to reduce breast movement by pressing the breast on the chest.

In addition, no literature was found to assess the use of sports bras or related bras
