In Reviving Ophelia, there is the suggestion that earlier menstrual periods
may be brought on by greater exposure to light at an earlier age (i.e. the
effect of electric lighting).  I have been unable to find any research to
support this.  Has anyone else encountered this idea?  I do know that
chickens lay eggs more frequently when the lights are on.
