Gynaecomastia is rare, and there is often no obvious cause. But there have been a number of cases linked to use of these essential oils.
男性乳房发育症很少见，常常没有明显的原因。但是现在有很多案例都发现与使用这些精油有关。

Lead researcher J. Tyler Ramsey from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), in North Carolina, suggested caution when using the oils.
来自北卡罗莱纳州国立环境健康科学研究所的首席研究员J·泰勒·拉姆塞建议使用这些精油时要小心谨慎。
"Our society deems essential oils as safe. However, they possess a diverse amount of chemicals and should be used with caution because some of these chemicals are potential endocrine disruptors."
“我们的社会认为精油是安全的，这些精油中的确含有多种化学物质，应谨慎使用，因为这些化学物质中有一些是潜在的内分泌干扰物。”
A growing number of reported cases of male gynaecomastia have coincided with topical exposure to the oils. After they stopped using the products, the symptoms subsided.
有越来越多的男性乳房发育症病例被报道有精油的身体局部接触史。在他们停止使用这些产品后，相关症状就消退了。
"Lavender oil and tea tree oil pose potential environmental health concerns and should be investigated further," said Mr Ramsey.
