Why does it get saggy?

Question

does the breast of a woman get saggy because of breastfeeding the baby or is it because she is getting old or because of pregnancy?

Answer 1

Old.  All the skin sags.  Try pinching an old persons arm, you will understand.

Answer 2

They can get saggy just from being to large, because of pregnancy (which causes them to get bigger) or genetics in the family line.  Breastfeeding doesn't cause them to sag, many woman get saggy b***s without ever being pregnant.  

Answer 3

Both.  

Weight gain in pregnancy affects a woman's b*****s drastically, although some girls get lucky.  But during pregnancy, you gain about 3-5 lbs in your b*****s alone.  And after birth, they swell 2-3 times bigger.  Then, like some women's stomachs, they return to normal size, but the muscles underneath and the skin has been stretched too much in a short amount of time.

And for women that never have children, gravity eventually attacks, lol

Answer 4

hahahahahaha

both

Answer 5

All of that which you mentioned contribute to sagging b*****s in women as well as gravity.

Answer 6

Yes.

Answer 7

Man all of the above...the truth is gravity takes over after a while even if your taking superb care of your breast. If you want them to stay perky longer. chest excerises....lotion up those breast and practice good posture.

Answer 8

well... old will do it, but after they finish breastfeeding the breast isn't producing anymore milk, making it less full. Sure for a little while it will still produce, and make her b*****s swollen and soar, but the body will absorb the unused milk, leaving the b*****s somewhat saggy.

Answer 9

Everyone is halfway right. None of it is genetics, however. It is mainly the stretching of the skin that makes them appear saggy but also, there is a ligament in your breast which holds them up higher and the weight from gaining it in pregnancy and the stress on it from breastfeeding stretchs it out and once this ligament is stretched, the saggy-ness appears and it does not go back on its own, the damage is done. I work for Victoria's Secret and as weird as it is, when the company made their new Sports Bras a few years ago they did research on this and how the bra would keep strain from the ligament during the stress on the b*****s during running. It is the same concept, with any stress put upon that ligament it stretches it out.
