5 Things You Didn't Know About Breasts

1- Women with breast implants are more likely to suicide

A 15-year study carried out chiefly at Laval University in Quebec, Canada, and published in the American Journal of Epidemiology found a 73% higher rate of suicide among women with breast implants over a control group.


Of course, the breast implants themselves aren’t leading to
suicidal tendencies; rather, the desire to get augmentation may be
symptomatic of an underlying mental condition, such as low self-esteem,
depression or body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). Women may opt for
implants if they regard larger breasts as a means of gaining confidence
or overcoming other personal issues. Unfortunately for these women,
another study, this one out of the Department of Psychology at
Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, concluded that people with
issues like BDD “typically do not benefit from cosmetic
procedures.”
