To prevent your breasts from sagging further, wear a bra. Wearing a bra puts less stress on your ligaments. The more you wear one during the day, the more it helps. Wearing a bra is especially important if you jog, play tennis, do aerobics or participate in other forms of exercise that bounce your breasts. If you're a C cup or larger, look for sports bras with good support that control your breast movement, says Dr. Price.
Some women find that nonelastic shoulder straps are best for minimizing movement.
Sports bras are available in the lingerie department of some department stores or in sporting goods stores.
