This Happens When Women Sleep Wear Bra
Sleep is a great time to rest his breast by not wearing a bra. So what happens when women sleep with wearing a bra?

Not just resting the muscles, during sleep the body undergoes repair and detoxification (remove toxins). Sleep also gives an opportunity for the immune system to produce hormones immunity (immune system).

Therefore, you should use a loose-fitting clothing or remove clothing in his sleep, so it can accelerate and streamline the performance of the body in the repair process. For the women should remove her bra while sleeping.

Here are some things that happen when women wear bras to bed, as reported by LIVESTRONG.

1. Sweaty
There are some special bras designed specifically for sleep, usually made of nylon or cotton material that can make your skin 'breathe'. But if you wear a regular bra to sleep, the sweat and moisture will stay inside the bra. This can cause itching and in extreme cases can cause injury.

"The best time to rest his breast without a bra is during sleep. Do not sleep with a bra," said Sydney Singer, as quoted by Chetday.

According to the Sydney Singer, use a bra for too long can increase the temperature of breast tissue and women who wear bras had higher levels of the hormone prolactin (hormone that functions to stimulate the milk glands) is higher. Both of these can affect the formation of breast cancer.

In addition, too often uses bra bra is too tight or use dangerous to health because it can also restrict the flow of lymph in the breast. Normally, lymph fluid wash waste material and other toxins, and also remove him from the breast.

Avoid Coffee If Want Pregnant
For women who are planning to become pregnant and have children, should reduce the consumption of coffee. Study finds caffeine in coffee could make it more difficult for pregnant women.

The scientists revealed that the stimulant found in coffee is caffeine can damage the transport eggs from the ovary to the uterus, thus disrupting the fertilization process and make difficult pregnant women.

In a previous study has shown that eating too much coffee can affect female fertility. The study, involving 9000 Dutch women found that consuming more than 4 cups of coffee a day can reduce the possibility of pregnancy about 25 percent.

While in this latest study the researchers managed to find its cause, namely stimulants or caffeine will inhibit contraction of the oviduct are necessary to bring the egg to the uterus. These stimulants deactivate the pacemaker cells that are specialized in the tube wall.

These cells function to coordinate a wave of the tube to contract and move the egg toward the uterus, but as a result of these stimulants make these cells are not active.

This study shows that contraction plays a greater role in the transport of the ovum to the uterus, whereas previously this was not thought by scientists.

"These findings further explain why drinking caffeinated beverages may reduce the chance of a woman becomes pregnant," said study chairman Professor Sean Ward, from the University of Nevada, as dikutuip from Dailymail, Thursday (05/26/2011).

Prof Ward said the results of this study provide an interesting explanation of why women who love to eat coffee takes longer to become pregnant than women who did not consume caffeine.

These findings have been published in the British Journal of Pharmacology. For that to women who are undergoing a program to conceive should avoid or reduce intake of caffeinated beverages such as coffee.
