...years ago, buoyed by a study showing that breast-tumor cells taken from biopsies in women contained parabens, commonly used preservatives that can mimic the hormone estrogen. Another study found that among women with breast cancer, those who shaved their underarms frequently, then applied antiperspirant or deodorant, tended to develop the cancer at an earlier age. But, says Dr. Therese Bevers of Houston's MD Anderson Cancer Center, "all these studies are fraught with biases, so you have to interpret them cautiously. There is not enough evidence to even lay out cautions at this point." Still, neither Unilever...
...enhance them. Trouble recently popped up in the form of an "Evangelical Manifesto" that expressed several New Evangelicalism principles he has come to support. Despite having helped launch the document and claiming to still agree with it, he declined to sign it, saying it was released before consensus could develop for it.

...even a small percentage of sexually active men agreed to try a new method of birth control, that would amount to a colossal number of potential consumers. That's why Thompson doesn't believe the drug industry's hesitance to develop male hormonal birth control is merely about money. "The biggest hurdle that I've encountered in trying to share this information is a sort of knee-jerk reaction that men aren't interested in these kinds of contraceptives and that women won't trust them to take them," she says. "Neither of those assertions are supported by the data...
