    My lump was exactly where my underwire ends on left breast...That's how I found it, I sometimes I wonder if wearing underwires could cause bc....since the location of my bc.....So, I am giving them up and have found that thier are some great support non-underwires being sold now.....pretty ones too!!!

    I wore underwire bras when I started rads but it wasn't a good idea.  The only place I had skin issues was where my underwire hit my skin.  I read in "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Breast Cancer" that underwire bras can be a contributing factor in breast cancer.  I rarely wear them and believe me I need them.
