Research Abstract	When adult male and infant took milk, the female hormone was detected in blood and urine that we had conducted. Therefore, we conducted some analyses to clarify the relation of infant's maturation and the intake of commercial milk by using the data of girls. As a result, it was clarified that the mammary development and first menstruation were related to the milk intake. As for this, the possibility that the milk consumption relates the woman's maturity. It is thought that it is necessary to reexamine the recommendation of a large amount of milk intake.
