I thought these were odd when I read them the other day. Common theme "Researchers don't know why"? Denise does not fall into either category, in fact she doesn't fall into many of the categories listed in the article I read.
Height and Breast cancer
Tall women have a higher risk of breast cancer. Researchers don’t know exactly why, but it may be related to the fact that tall people grow more. Some of the same hormones and other factors that make people grow may also increase the chance that dividing cells become abnormal and turn cancerous.
Birth weight and Breast cancer
Women who weighed more at birth have a higher risk of breast cancer before menopause. Researchers aren’t sure exactly why this is, but they are studying different influences like pregnancy hormones and other prenatal factors to learn more about breast cancer development.
