Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Today is National No Bra Day.

No Bra Day is an annual observance on October 13 on which women are encouraged to go braless as a means to encourage breast cancer awareness.

No Bra Day was initially observed on July 9, 2011, but within three years it had moved to the 13th day of the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, October. Users on social media are encouraged to post using the hashtag #nobraday to promote awareness of breast cancer symptoms and to encourage gender equality.

Some users on social media sites also encourage women to post pictures of themselves not wearing a bra. Some women embrace No Bra Day as a political statement while others prefer the comfort of discarding what they view as a restrictive, uncomfortable garment.

#NoBraDay is not an opportunity to see breast. It is an international observance on Oct 13th to remember the victims, celebrate the survivors and create awareness about breast cancer.
Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed life-threatening cancer in women

It is the leading cause of cancer death among women. It was previously known to be commoner in women greater than 35 but recently, Breast Cancer is becoming increasingly common in younger women.

Risk Factors
Age
Family History of breast cancer
Smoking and Alcohol intake
Obesity

Dietary Factors/Excessive Processes foods
Early Menarche
Low parity
Failure to breastfeed
etc

What are the Signs/Symptoms?

Painless lump
Change in breast size/shape
Nipple retraction/inversion/discharge
Breast Skin Changes/Ulcers
Lump in the axilla
Etc

What can you do as a woman?
Self Breast examination is a very useful method for early discovery of lumps which could be cancerous. A self breast examination should be done every month on the 3rd-5th day after the first day of menstruation.

This is because the breast is less tender and lumpy at this time in your monthly cycle. If you pick any lump during this examination, kindly proceed to see a Doctor for further evaluation which may include Ultrasound Scan, Mammography or Histology.

When picked early enough, breast cancer may be curable by Chemotherapy alone or Chemotherapy+Surgical Intervention but late presentation inevitably leads to death. Early diagnosis is key. Tell your sisters, wives, mothers, nieces and daughters.

#NoBraDay is all about creating awareness for breast cancer, educating our women about the importance of breast examination and preventive measures.

Not an avenue to showcase your Breast please.
Examine your breast today, stay safe and healthy.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Today is National No Bra Day

Everyday is a no bra day for me. - Nigerian Lady declares

Mon, 13 Oct 2025: No Bra day

Which one be no bra dey again. Wonder shall never end with this gender. Men should pray for grace while working hard

Cancer is a deadly disease, hopefully there will be a cure very soon

ok seen next na all this rubbish Nigerians they like..

In Nigeria, everyday has always being a No Bra Day cos the way these ladies go about exposing their cleavages is really disturbing.

Once they remove that bra, you will see their long, Big breasts pointing to their toes. How can a young girl of 21 who hasn't given birth before possess such a huge mammary gland?

Sometimes, it isn't about Genre. Na too much Knacking

As someone who ultimately loves and cherishes big water melons, I have to tell you that breasts are the best of God's creation.

I cherish big boobs all day. You can touch it, you can feel it, you can suck it, you can sleep and rest your head on it.

I love big boobs

If Una like, celebrate no clothes day.
Stark naked..

No bra day indeed....
Even the ones that have been displaying free cleavages n breasts, all year long will tell you
today is no bra day.....
😂😂😂

The government should declare public holiday for the no bra day to show its importance at least.
