There is one reference that apparently quotes breastfeeding as a risk
reduction for cervical cancer. I have not read the reference, but it
is quoted in Maureen Minchin's booklet   Breastfeeding: Advantages
for Developed Nations

Brock KE, Berry G, Brinton LA et al. Sexual, reproductive and
contraceptive risk factors for carcinoma-in-situ for the uterine
cervix in Sydney.  Med J Aust 1989; 150:125-130

If I have time, I'll track down the article and report back to all of
you on its content.

Hope this helps
