I would strongly encourage you look into the research of Dr Shawna Swan. She's done several studies since the 1990's that have found and then later confirmed very alarming effects on testosterone and unborn children. And it's not just plastics causing this, it's pesticides and parabens too.

OK but levels are down from 2009, so we are in the right track.
I guess lucky for me I already do HRT and have a vasectomy.
