Was speaking with an oncology nurse today who was telling me that a recent
Australian study had revealed that a high percentage of women (in a small
study) who had been treated with chemotherapy for cancer as infants/ small
children experienced lactation failure as adults.  Has anyone else heard
of, or had experience with this?
What is your hypothesis on why it happens?  Pregnancy apparently proceeded
normally (though details I was given are scant).

Thanks
Denise
