How to fix a bra?

Options
Sorry if this has been addressed previously - I did a search, but bra is only 3 letters long and I think it falls underneath the search threshold.

I have an ongoing problem with the underwire in my bras - after a month or so, it pops right through the fabric either underneath my armpit or through the middle bit. None of my friends share this problem, so I don't know if it's just me!

I've tried loads of ways to keep the underwire in, but I haven't had any sucess. Sewing, no matter how tightly, seems to just redirect the wire and make it poke out in a new place. I've tried that iron-on fabric but I can't seem to get it to adhere because the fabric is uneven.

Any suggestions? I'm desperate because I'm spending way, way too much money on bras!!
