Ugh, the sports bra uniboob on a hot day...

[treedimensional]

Sweat + friction = something that looks like diaper rash in my cleavage.
NASTY.

[beaglechon2012]

Omg I am so sorry! That is so painful. There is a powder the doctor can prescribe to wick up the moisture. Otherwise, do you have a moisture wicking bra?

[treedimensional]

I don't see how a moisture wicking bra would help me, because there is no bra fabric between my breasts to wick away the moisture, and of course therein lies the issue. If my breasts were separated, like in a normal bra, there would be no cleavage and no friction. What I had today was a deep salty cleavage-river and it's NASTY.
But I have really big breasts and there are fewer options for me.
After a hot shower and time spend in the AC, all the redness is gone. But it still stings a little.

I'm pretty sure there are some "normal style bra" sports bras out there... I know I've seen them before. Might require a bit of research, but I'm sure there's something out there! Maybe check out running stores?

Try using Body Glide or Monistat Chafing Gel next time. It should help with that.

I went to nordstrom and got a bra fitting. My a 34G and ended up with a wacoal sports bra.

It solves all the smooshed uniboob problems I've ever had:

Heck yeah! :Y: Does anyone know what band size Nordstrom bras generally go up to? Sorry to threadjack.

It sounds like heat rash to me. Hope you can find a bra that prevents uniboob, I hate uniboob.

[pooh8402]

what about gold bond? will that not work? I use that or deodorant on my inner thighs to prevent chafing when it's super hot out.

[pinkplasticdoll]

Body glide is a godsend. I too have gotten the boob chafing from sports bras and learned quickly to use my Body glide when I would be out exercising in the heat. I have to wear Moving comfort bras and Nike bras to accommodate my chest but use body glide and havent had any issues since I started using the body glide.

I put baby powder (the cornstarch kind, not the baby-scented) and anti-perspirate under and between my boobs. Schweaty boobs totally gross me out.

[mrspost08]

I saw some Champion sports bras that were similar to regular bras. I HATE the uniboob.....I have large and in charge girls, so I understand your problem.

[evans]

What size are you? I just ordered this bra and like it a lot. There is an extra bit of fabric to help keep them separated.

There are more styles on Figleaves that carry bigger sizes so check around there (if you haven't already).
