Filipinas were found to have the smallest breast mean size in the world, according to a recent study published in the Journal of Female Health Sciences.
Citing the said study, a report by Telegraph UK said the researchers analyzed the breast size data of about 400,000 women born in 108 countries, and compared the mean volume and cup size of women.
“The study found major differences in the breast size of women born in different countries, with US women found to have a significantly larger mean breast volume than women from other nations, while Filipino women were found to have the smallest,” the report said.
Women from the United States, Canada, Ireland, Poland and UK were found to have the biggest breast size in the world, while Malaysia, Bangladesh, Samoa, and Solomon Islands join the Philippines in the bottom.
The researchers said their analysis revealed that there was a “considerable variation in the breast tissue volume” of women depending on their country of birth.
According to the study, women born in Africa and Asia, “particularly in East Asian countries,” have the smallest breast volumes in the world.
“Increasing knowledge of the breast size variation of women from different countries is needed as a guideline for example for the product development and targeting of marketing actions of clothing industry and cosmetic surgery providers,” the researchers were quoted as saying.
