When we talk about cycles returning we use statistical measures.
Over a large group of people, exclusing nursing delays return of menses.
Statistics are useful when studying populations and meaningless
for an individual. There is always someone (usually many someones)
at either end of the average that is always quoted in the statistics.
Also, I haven't read specific research on this topic, but I don't
know that nursing multiples or singleton is the primary issue in how
long one goes before cycles return.
