Chen Hongmei, the current executive deputy general manager of Ludi Shishi Underwear Co., Ltd., said that in the underwear industry, more than 90% of underwear will use sponges. Women's breast diseases, such as breast cancer, have nothing to do with the use of sponge bras, but with their own wearing habits, the appropriateness of choosing bras and other behaviors.

"Sponges used in bras don't stick directly to the skin," Chen Hongmei explained. First of all, there is a layer of cotton cloth between the sponge and the skin, which is the basic knowledge of bra manufacturing technology. Using regular washing products, even if some residues appear in the sponge, it will not damage women's breasts and even cause cancer.

Extended data:

Underwear industry has always had a number of strict quality inspection standards for bras, such as China Quality Certification (CQC), which meets the safety requirements of direct wearing and direct contact with skin.

Professor Ma Xiufen, deputy director of Gansu Breast Professional Committee of China Anti-Cancer Association, also said: "Although the raw materials for sponge production are toxic, as long as the qualified products from regular manufacturers are safe and non-toxic, they will not cause cancer at all."

Although the sponge bra is not a big killer of women's health, we should pay attention to the cleaning, frequent cleaning and frequent disinfection of the bra on weekdays. Buying a new bra about half a year can not only avoid the breeding of germs in the bra, but also avoid the discomfort caused by the old deformation or body change of the bra.
