Dear TeenHealthFX,
Is it true that if you sleep with your bra on at night, it could stunt the development of your breasts?

Dear Wearing My Bra While Sleeping,
No research exists to support the rumor that wearing a bra at night will stunt breast development. So, there is no need to worry. However, you may feel better and find it easier to sleep if you do not wear a bra to sleep. Sometimes wearing a bra while sleeping can be uncomfortable!
