I wanted to run something past you cause I know you looked into this.
Soo... Did you know the less pregnancies and the less breastfeeding and early onset menstruation all means excessive exposure to estrogen over a woman's lifetime.To the point of increased risk of BC. Now I know you have one kid as do I. For me I won't have anymore and i didn't breastfeed long AT ALL...
So if longer breastfeeding helps reduce the estrogen load on the body, do you think that's because for the most part we don't menstruate while we are breastfeeding??
If that's the case then by relactating and stopping our period is healthy for those of us who can't have any more kids..
Just something to ponder. What do you think?
