Uneven breasts lead to cancer

Let the panic begin! :dubious:

well, it’s sexier than “Pinching Causes Cancer”

I foresee a burgeoning future in Unilateral Breast Augmentation.
(Because, after all, who’s going to try to sdell Unilateral Reduction?)

Um…I thought it was normal for ALL breasts to be a little uneven. Wildly unsymmetrical is one thing, but this is almost akin to saying, “Breasts lead to breast cancer.”

Well, why not? It’s already been established that being a lab rat causes cancer…

Well, the story does say

The study in the journal Breast Cancer Research found the relative odds of getting cancer went up 50% for each 100ml increase in breast asymmetry.

Lead researcher Dr Diane Scutt told the BBC News website the average female breast in the study was about 500ml in size, so a variation of 100ml was quite big.

She added that almost all women had some degree of breast asymmetry - just one woman who took part in the study had perfectly symmetrical breasts.
