The association of adiposity with dense tissue area in the breast is unclear but suggests a mechanism by which adiposity might increase breast cancer risk. We examined associations of body mass index (BMI), usual BMI from age 20–29, waist circumference, and adult weight gain with breast density in a sample of premenopausal US Chinese immigrant women. Analyses included 415 participants in a longitudinal breast density study in Philadelphia. In addition to detailed questionnaire information, data collection included measures of anthropometry, and assessment of mammographic breast density using a computer-assisted method. We used multivariate linear regression to quantify cross-sectional associations with dense and non-dense tissue area and percent breast density assessed at baseline. In adjusted models, BMI and waist circumference were significantly positively associated with non-dense tissue area and inversely associated with percent density. BMI was also significantly positively associated with dense tissue area. Adult weight gain was associated with dense tissue area after adjusting for weight from age 20–29. In stratified analyses, BMI and adult weight gain were significantly associated with dense tissue area among women with BMI <23 kg/m2, and BMI was associated with non-dense tissue area among women with BMI >=23 kg/m2. In this sample, adiposity and weight gain were associated with dense breast tissue area, although associations differed by level of adiposity. Given the potential implications of these findings for breast cancer prevention in premenopausal women, comparable studies in other population groups and with longitudinal data are needed. Reasons for the noted differences in associations by level of adiposity also warrant further investigation.
