The following was told to me by a client of mine by her MD, she is
referring to her episitomy , her daughter is about 8 months old now.
Does lactation create scar tissue in the vagina and cause slow
healing?????? I have NEVER heard that one!!  Is this another sacrificing
breastfeeding on the alter of ignorance? Thanks!

"Apparently, the
fact that I am still nursing is the cause for the slow healing and
excess scar tissue..."
