We have covered many interesting topics in the area of biology over the years and this being a previously popular topic we are are bringing it back from 2011, updated for 2024. The question is…
Are there any women with three breasts?
We are told that there is an adult video of actress “Taylor Chanel” who has three breasts. She claims, in the video to have been born with the three. Here is a cropped safe for work still image:

The makeup job and prosthesis are very good, excellent blending to match her own skin, but she never had three before that video. People on the net have pointed out that she made other videos and in those she has only two. Here is a safe for work photo of Taylor.

So, myth busted … pardon the pun.
Photoshop Fakes
Who can dig up the real name of the model in the following photo? We suspect this is just a Photoshop fake rather than a model with a false boob.

The above is for a beer advertisement, also a fake. Here is another Photoshop job based on certain signs in the image. It was first found according to TinEye.com on Jun 11, 2013:

So, are there no three breasted women, then?
In reality, there can be.
Polymastia
There is a real condition that can cause one or more extra breasts to grow. This is from Wikipedia:
Image use for fact checking. No copyright infringement intended.
Accessory breasts, also known as polymastia, supernumerary breasts, or mammae erraticae, is the condition of having an additionalbreast. Extra breasts may appear with or without nipples or areolae. … In some cases, the accessory breast may not be visible at the surface. In these cases, it may be possible to distinguish their appearance from normal breast tissue with MRI. In other cases, accessory breasts have been known to lactate, as illustrated in a woodcut showing a child nursing at ectopic breast tissue on the lateral thigh …Polymastia results from the eruption of extra breasts usually along the milk line that extends from axillae to groin. While the location of this tissue is established during embryonic development, it may not become apparent or troublesome until puberty or lactation. In extremely rare cases, extra breasts may appear ectopically on the neck, face, upper arm, shoulder, back, buttock, hip, vulva, perineum, thigh, or even foot.
In structural anomalies or anatomic variants of the breast, the presence of a supernumerary nipple is more common than the presence of supernumerary breast tissue with or without an associated nipple-areolar. Accessory mammary tissue is more common in women 2 to 6 percent than in men 1 percent.1 Incidence also varies among ethnic groups; accessory mammary tissue is more common in Asian women than in black or white women
There you have it. Yes. The answer is yes, it is possible to have an extra breast and/or nipple grow in many places but there is no medically confirmed case yet in 2019 where an extra breast was found growing in the center between two otherwise healthy ones.
Body Modification
It is possible, of course to have breast implants and there are prosthetic breasts for women who have lost one or both breasts to cancer, so it should not be a surprise that someone with two normal breasts eventually found a plastic surgeon willing to give her an artificial third. A woman named Jasmine Tridevil who works as an entertainer (but does not do nudes) claims to have had this done.

Jasmine revealed that she hasn’t spoken to her mother since having the surgery, and claimed ‘The world hates me I get nothing but negative comments,’ She went on: ‘They think I’m an attention whore and it’s true – I do love attention and I’m not ashamed of it because every entertainer is an attention whore whether they like to admit it or not.’ … She denies that she had the extra breast put on to get fame and fortune. Jasmine added: ‘I got it because I wanted to make myself unattractive to men. Because I don’t want to date anymore.’
The massage therapist from Tampa, Florida, claims to have spent close to $20,000 to have an additional breast implanted between her other two in an effort to make herself less attractive to men. In an interview with Orlando radio station Real Radio 104.1, Tridevil notes that she reached out to over 50 doctors before one agreed to perform the surgery.
“[I] believe 100% that this is a hoax that everyone is falling for,” Dr. Matthew Schulman M.D., a board-certified plastic surgeon in New York City who has performed thousands of breast augmentation and reconstruction surgeries, told the Daily Dot in an e-mail. “I would be happy to go on record claiming that this is a falsified story and essentially not possible.”
There are two elements of Tridevil’s story that make Dr. Schulman skeptical. The first is the photographic “evidence” of Tridevil’s third breast itself, which, as the urban legend debunking website Snopes.com points out, is largely based on photos and videos she’s taken herself and posted on her own Facebook page, all of which are in dim lighting and could be easily manipulated. …
the potential ethical implications of performing this surgery could possibly get a real plastic surgeon in hot water with one of the two prominent plastic surgery societies, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS),” he told the Daily Dot. Such sanctions could lead to a permanent loss of the surgeon’s medical license. … The website for her massage parlor, … now describes her as a “provider of internet hoaxes since 2014” and a “specialist in massage for three breasted women.”
Heavy.com also thinks it’s a hoax based on various evidence, but they present no conclusive proof. No one has definitely confirmed her story that her third boob is an implant rather than a prosthesis, but no one has proven that it is not an implant, either. Might be true.
Summary: Are there any women with three breasts?
Yes, women can have three breasts, a condition known as accessory breast or polymastia. This occurs when additional breast tissue develops, which can manifest as fully-formed breasts or smaller lumps of tissue, sometimes with or without nipples and areolae. While this condition is often benign and goes untreated, it can be surgically removed for cosmetic reasons if desired. Reports suggest that accessory breasts are more common than many realize, with some estimates indicating that up to six percent of the population in certain regions, like Japan, may have this condition. Additionally, there are individuals who have undergone surgery to create a third breast for aesthetic purposes, such as a woman who gained attention for modifying her body in this way to deter male attention.

you my friend, are a S-Q-U-A-R-E ….& because you’re so politically correct use URBANdictionary.com to find out other meanings of the word square……..or perhaps go outside & make friends.
It’s 2013 and nothing happened. Nothing will happen… you believers have been saying this for thousands of years. A little more science and a little less make-believe will do you good. [Attack removed ]
It was in a video, so it is not a camera trick, unless it is a cgi video trick, but I think it is a movie quality special effects prosthetic device…which should make some women who have had mastectomies due to cancer ask for details.
dont know whether the girl wid three breast is true or not … if its true,its jus amazing bt still she is a human being like everyone else. if thats true ,i juz wanna know ,is she happy wid it or not. if its not true or done by surgery ,then i want to say ( dont ) ….
most unfortunately I have whatever the hell this is. I have it under my left breast. i thought I got cut because at first it was just an indentented purple thing under my boob. Now it appears to be getting more pronounce. It’s a nipple alright. gets hard, but it has no feeling to it. Unless I like, scrape it with a needle, which I have done. It’s also like, meatier around the nipple, I can cover it with a bra, but I think Ill get surgery as soon as possible. I dont like this about me =(
From a biological, scientific point of view, yes this is more than possible. Many woman (and guys) have something called ‘supermammory tissue’ or an ‘extra breast’ although most of us do not notice, some people may have an extra nipple toward their armpit, below or in between the breasts, or even further down on the stomach, basically a breast can form anywhere on the body in utero. Some women don’t pick up on the extra tissue until they begin doing self exams, and it can be a cause for concern as it can feel like a lump or swelling, which is quickly dispelled by visiting a doctor. It is not yet known if breast cancer can form in supermammory breast tissue, so it is wise to keep a watch on all breast tissue, anywhere on the body.
I dated a girl in college at the U of I 48 years ago and the third breast was located in the center of her back. She looked a bit strange, but she was wonderful to slow dance with.
Thanks Walter. Lucila Vit, could be… looks a bit like her. I used TinEye.com and found the same image with the following quote: “By digitally modifying a model for the purpose of exploiting her sexuality, this Bicardi (sic) ad violated the Canadian Code of Advertising…” I used that text to track down a link that shows it is definitely from a rejected Bacardi ad: http://www.bestrejectedadvertising.com
UPDATE: That web site is no longer functional as of 12.1.2012…. Here is the text and photo from that now vanished web site:
Adjudication of Advertising Standards Canada:
Complaint:
The complainants alleged that the advertisement degraded and demeaned women.
Decision:
Prior to exhibiting the advertisement, the advertiser submitted and received approval to exhibit the advertisement under the CRTC Code for Broadcast of Advertising of Alcoholic Beverages, (which applies to print advertising, as well as broadcast in British Columbia). Approval under CRTC‚ Broadcast Code, however, does not constitute or guarantee conformity with the provisions of the Canadian Code of Advertising Standards that were applied in the case of this adjudication. Aspects of women‚ and men‚ sexuality have been found in other advertising that did not raise issues under the Canadian Code of Advertising Standards. However, in this case, it appeared to Council that the female model was digitally modified in this advertisement for one purpose only‚ to attract the attention of readers by exploiting the female model’s sexuality. Council could find no relevant connection between the altered image and the product being advertised. Council concluded, therefore, that focusing on parts of a woman‚ body for no purpose related to the product objectified and demeaned women.
Advertiser’s Verbatim Statement: Bacardi Canada Inc. is a member in good standing of Advertising Standards Canada. The company undertook what was felt to be responsible steps to ensure the creative in question was acceptable, by pre-submitting to ASC and securing approval according to the Code for Broadcast Advertising of Alcoholic Beverages, which applies to print as well as broadcast advertising in British Columbia. We also undertook a full review of the existing and historical creative aired in Canada, to ensure this was consistent and in keeping with what was felt to be accepted areas of creative. While we do not agree with the Council’s decision, we respect it and the process that was followed. We have committed to cease exhibiting of the creative in question.
This is show here for educational purposes to fact-check the image. I haven’t found any other photo of Vit smiling that wide with eyebrows that thin. There was a three breasted woman in a Bacardi ad video at http://www.visit4ads.com/advert/Bacardi-Rum-Come-Bacardi-Rum/19430 but this is now removed.
Comment about that book cover from the Amazon site: “I know that the smiling, mammory unchallenged lady on the cover is a fake, but the majority of the other people in this book were real, documented circus exhibits”
Think that’s weird? It seems that A) Most left-handed people ‘ate’ their twins B) Most women are chimeras since it’s entirely arbitrary which X-chromosome is active in a specific cell. C) Some ‘women’ have Y chromosomes. Yes, the X is active and no, they don’t have Adam’s apples. 😉
I say ‘seems that’ because that could turn out to be wrong.

Is there such a phenomenon as a male with two penis’s?, I know of males and females that where born with male genitals and a female vagina, but this, we could save for another day.
“Diphallia, penile duplication (PD), diphallic terata, or diphallasparatus, is a rare medical condition in which a male infant is born with two penises. The first reported case was by Johannes Jacob Wecker in 1609. Its occurrence is 1 in 5,500,000 men in the United States.
When diphallia is present, it is usually accompanied by other congenital anomalies such as renal, vertebral, hindgut or anorectal duplication. There is also a higher risk of spina bifida. Infants born with PD and its related conditions have a higher death rate from various infections associated with their more complex renal or colorectal systems…. “

I’ll be making damn sure I can spell correctly, and not bastardizing the English language Mr Samuel. That’s where I’ll be.

I about wrecked reading your reply
I can’t even read that!
I’m sorry you’re having that much trouble, you REALLY couldn’t understand what he said? … -_-

This comment was really unnecessary and rude
Your comment, although serious and true, put a smile on my face. Do not take any notice of the other comments…
Amen and i agree with you May GOD have mercy on all of us

and you need to give yourself a tutor for your english vocabulary. grab a dictionary, a pencil and some paper and practice your damn spelling!
What are you doing looking at these images if you’re a Christian like you claim??
Most “Christians” enjoy a nice set of [breasts]
Research for school
It’s 2013 and nothing happened. Nothing will happen… you believers have been saying this for thousands of years. A little more science and a little less make-believe will do you good. [Attack removed ]
[Attack removed] (I am) a believer in our heavenly father [attack removed]. Amen
That is so fake DAHAHA
That is bull crap… Big time…
Thats so stupid.
Its a camera trick!
It was in a video, so it is not a camera trick, unless it is a cgi video trick, but I think it is a movie quality special effects prosthetic device…which should make some women who have had mastectomies due to cancer ask for details.

Now it appears to be getting more pronounce. It’s a nipple alright. gets hard, but it has no feeling to it. Unless I like, scrape it with a needle, which I have done.

Women should have 3 breasts one on there back just for when they go dancing.
