Medical Conditions - Endocrine Disruptors

Endocrine disruptors are substances found in everyday products such as plastics, pesticides, or personal care items that interfere with the body's hormonal system. By mimicking or blocking the body's natural hormones, these disruptors can lead to various health issues, including reproductive problems, developmental disorders, metabolic disorders, and immune dysfunction. Exposure to endocrine disruptors is particularly concerning during critical periods of development, such as pregnancy and early childhood, when even low levels of exposure can have long-lasting effects.
