It doesn't. Growth hormones are just that; they are just there to aid in the increase of milk production. Genetic technology is just a means to better select cows and bulls that are more apt to produce calves with better milking ability than themselves. Growth hormones have nothing to do with genetics or reproduction, really.

Breast growth primarily rests with increasing levels of the "sex" (estrogen) and growth hormones. What we eat cannot increase or decrease breast size, unless the cows were fed high levels of hormones before butchering. Men's breasts can increase if affected by cancer.

Which milk brands have bovine growth hormones in them?
Many conventional milk brands may use cows treated with bovine growth hormone (rBST or rBGH), which is a synthetic hormone used to increase milk production. Brands like Dairy Farmers of America and some store-brand milks may include milk from cows treated with rBST. However, many companies, including organic and some mainstream brands like Horizon Organic and Organic Valley, explicitly state that their milk comes from cows not treated with growth hormones. Always check the label for specific information regarding hormone use.
