The perfect bra during the menopause

The menopause: a word that for some women sounds like uncertainty and discomfort and for others like a new beginning. What the menopause definitely brings with it is change. The hormones dance the tango and suddenly your own, otherwise so familiar breast feels different. Maybe fuller, maybe softer, maybe just... new. In this phase of life, it is worth listening to your chest and yourself again. Because what has held and supported us for years is now allowed to adapt.

The breast during the menopause

During the menopause, the connective tissue elasticity, the fatty tissue can increase and the breast sometimes loses firmness - This is completely normal and a natural process. The size can also fluctuate. Sometimes half a cup size more, sometimes less. So it's no wonder that your old favorite bra suddenly pinches, slips or simply no longer fits properly.

However, these changes are not a flaw! They are a sign that your body is alive, changing and finding a new balance in life. And that's exactly what your bra should do: Give you support where you need it and at the same time leave room for your new body image.
