By Collaborative for Health & Environment

Industrial chemicals that can affect male and female reproductive function are widespread in our environment. Many of these chemicals are used in the plastics that we use in our daily lives. We are also exposed through manufacturing processes, pesticides, and a range of household products, from air fresheners to skin creams. Over the past few decades, a growing body of evidence has found that exposure to these chemicals is linked to many health concerns, such as infertility, cancer, and neurodevelopmental disorders.
