    There have been some studies that suggest this may be so...

    The thinking is that bras may restrict lymph flow, which is your body's way of getting rid of waste products and toxins. A build up of toxins would increase your chances of getting breast cancer later in life.

    Bras don't cause cancer by the heat and constant pressure any more than shoes do, so the answer is no.

    No.

    Not wearing a bra for larger breasted women, particularly in tropics, can result in fungal infections and ulcers under the breast.
