          Apropos Kathleen Bruce's recent comment, my colleague Dr
          Heli Bathija remarks: <Through research we are making
          generalizations. We can say that in a large group of women
          *on average* the milk supply was not decreased [while using
          DP]. This unfortunately does not exclude a possibility that
          it might do so in specific cases. However, our message is
          that no woman should stop breast-feeding because she wants
          to use DP and no woman should be denied the use of DP
          because she is breast-feeding. The difficulty in most health
          education messages is that they are correct in most cases,
          but occasionally don't suit an individual.>
