Excellent point! Also, many of the "products" people use in their
environments contain psuedo-estrogens which might play a role. The bottome
line is that I personally doubt it is as much a matter of just a broad range
of normal as it is a multitude of nutritional, environmental and nursing
"style" factors. And who knows if whether or not we ourselves were bf might
impact the way our bodies respond to hormones.
