The impact was similar to girls with macromastia – a condition with a known mental health impact - as well as in boys with enlarged breasts and even women with differences in the breasts related to breast cancer surgery.

巨乳症患者、乳房增大的男生、因乳腺癌而做了手术导致乳房异常的女性也都有这样的问题。

Having asymmetrical breasts was also associated with borderline issues in social functioning – a person's ability to interact normally in society. They also showed borderline issues with eating behaviours and attitudes.

乳房不对称也与社交能力、饮食行为、饮食态度等边缘问题有关。

In the U.S., where the study was carried out, Dr Labow noted that although there is insurance coverage for surgery to correct asymmetry in breast cancer survivors because the impact on mental health is well understood, no provision exists for young women born with different-sized breasts. As a result, treatment is often not reimbursed by insurance, with the justification that there is “no functional impairment”.

拉波尔博士表示，在该研究的进行地美国，乳腺癌手术导致的乳房不对称会给患者造成心理伤害，这一点非常明确，因此其矫正手术被纳入医保范围，而针对天生乳房不对称少女的矫正手术却没有任何资助。结果，治疗费用得不到报销，从而让人产生了“天生乳房不对称没有任何危害”的错误判断。
