BOSTON - Lavender and tea tree oils found in some shampoos, soaps and lotions can temporarily leave boys with enlarged breasts in rare cases, apparently by disrupting their hormonal balance, a preliminary study suggests.

Wow. So many baby products have lavender in them, too. Definitely something to watch for.

Read the labels, alot of the ones I have don't have any real lavender in them. It's a lavender scent with no essential oils.

Also they only found it in 3 boys, that's not really enough people to think it's common. I wonder how much of it they were using too.
