Dr. Marisa Weiss, the senior author of the study, put it in layman's terms: "The breast gland is immature and unable to do its job — which is to make milk — until it goes through ... a full-term pregnancy." Breastfeeding causes changes in milk duct cells to occur, making the breast more resistant to cancer.
