DES has been blamed for cervical cancer in DES babies for years. Didn't know about the connection with breast cancer. Of course, without DES many of these women would have been miscarriages and never lived to begin with.

That's interesting. I knew that DES was linked with certain diseases. I wonder if it is still considered a cause of cervical cancer now that papillomavirus is considered responsible for over 99% of cervical cancers and is implicated in many other cancers.
