Title: Pre-HRT measurements
Post by: Auroramarianna on October 14, 2014, 12:01:05 PM
heyyy :)

I just wanted to ask if you think my pre-HRT measurements are good. Apparently my rib cage size is about 31 inches, I'm 5'5 1/2 tall, my hips are 35.4 and my waist is 29 inches. I had to convert cm s to inches! To be honest what worries me is my hips and I just wanted to know if my ribcage is small enough for my future boobs to look like they belong there ehehe. When I look at my ribcage, sometimes it seems big. But I'm definitely my worst critique and I don't understand anything of measurements so I thought I'd ask here.

thank you,

Aurora

Maybe this will help you: http://www.bralessinbrasil.com/2012/03/underbust-survey-part-2-sample-bias-and.html

"The Marines have published data: http://www.humanics-es.com/ADA316646.pdf from 1995 where they did a study that included taking the underbust measurements of women.

To be in the marines you must be under certain weight (depending on your height) and that weight falls within only the healthy BMI range.  According to their data the average female ribcage measurements is 30"."

Sadly no direct comparison between the body height and underbust.
