Let's talk.

To the comment labeled "estrogen":
You CAN limit your use of products that have synthetic estrogen. I've added some links here that explain this matter in detail. It's interesting to note that synthetic estrogens have a correlation to cancer in humans. There are higher concentrations of parabens in breast cancer tissue. Do some research to see exactly what's in your shampoos, lotions, etc.
