That causes the cells to proliferate, which means they multiply through division. And every time a cell divides through division, it has to copy its DNA. Every time a cell copies its DNA there are possible mistakes that are going to be made.,\u201d Dr. Lafranchini states.<\/p>\n<p>Changes to the breast tissue typically occur after estrogen reaches a higher point.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s why the more menstrual cycles a woman has in her lifetime, the higher her risk of breast cancer&#8230;. One of the things that protects us from breast cancer is childbirth,&#8221; Lanfranchi said.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Lafranchi also points out that estrogen and progestin are found in oral contraceptives.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_172121\" style=\"width: 814px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-172121\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-172121\" src=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Breast-Cancer-Risks-tied-to-estrogen-Hush-the-Documentary.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"804\" height=\"406\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Breast-Cancer-Risks-tied-to-estrogen-Hush-the-Documentary.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Breast-Cancer-Risks-tied-to-estrogen-Hush-the-Documentary-300x152.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Breast-Cancer-Risks-tied-to-estrogen-Hush-the-Documentary-768x388.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Breast-Cancer-Risks-tied-to-estrogen-Hush-the-Documentary-700x354.jpg 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Breast-Cancer-Risks-tied-to-estrogen-Hush-the-Documentary-500x253.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 804px) 100vw, 804px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-172121\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Breast cancer risks tied to estrogen (screenshot: &#8220;Hush: the Documentary&#8221;)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>According to Dr. Lafranchi, as soon as a woman gets pregnant &#8220;and you have the embryo floating down the Fallopian tube before implantation,&#8221; the embryo &#8220;is producing HCG.&#8221;\u00a0HCG stimulates the ovaries to produce 2000 percent more estrogen and progesterone.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And when the HCG goes way up, you start putting out a lot of estrogen&#8230; And what that&#8217;s doing, its stimulating the mother&#8217;s breast tissue to grow,&#8221; Lafranchi stated.\u00a0She adds that at this point the woman is making more of the type 1 and 2 cancer-susceptible lobules.<\/p>\n<p>Lanfranchi warns that &#8220;it&#8217;s only after 32 weeks when the human placental lactogen level goes high that you start getting the full differentiation&#8230;.\u00a0That&#8217;s when women start getting the protective effect of a full term pregnancy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fact #2:<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Early childbirth (full term pregnancy) is a protective factor against breast cancer later in life.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_172212\" style=\"width: 521px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-172212\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-172212 \" src=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Dr-Anthony-Miller-Hush-the-Documentary-1-700x356.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"511\" height=\"260\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Dr-Anthony-Miller-Hush-the-Documentary-1-700x356.jpg 700w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Dr-Anthony-Miller-Hush-the-Documentary-1-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Dr-Anthony-Miller-Hush-the-Documentary-1-768x391.jpg 768w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Dr-Anthony-Miller-Hush-the-Documentary-1-500x255.jpg 500w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Dr-Anthony-Miller-Hush-the-Documentary-1.jpg 1031w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 511px) 100vw, 511px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-172212\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr Anthony Miller (screenshot: &#8220;Hush: the Documentary&#8221;)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Breast cancer epidemiologist Dr. Anthony Miller told filmmaker Gill, &#8220;The fact that women are having children older is going to increase their risk of breast cancer&#8230;.\u00a0This is something that they should understand.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Women need to know when they&#8217;re young if they delay their first pregnancy beyond the age of twenty-five, and particularly beyond the age of thirty, they will more than double their risk of breast cancer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This fact was echoed by former abortionist and alleged &#8220;expert&#8221; on abortion Dr. David Grimes, who said that &#8220;[w]omen should know that early childbearing will confer protection against breast cancer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;However,&#8221; Grimes added, &#8220;the trend in the United States at least &#8212; I don&#8217;t know about Canada, but in the United States &#8211;we see later and later onset of first births&#8230; but women should know that if they do that, they increase their risk of perhaps breast cancer and also infertility.
