Abstract in brief

Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are linked to declining male reproductive health, including issues like cryptorchidism, poor semen quality, and testicular cancer, especially when exposure occurs during fetal development.
The critical period called the masculinization programming window (MPW) in fetal development is particularly sensitive to EDCs, and exposure during this time can disrupt testicular development and cause long-term reproductive problems.
Although animal studies suggest EDCs play a role in male reproductive disorders, human studies show mixed results, and research continues to explore how prenatal and early life exposures influence conditions like hypospadias, semen quality, hormone levels, and testicular cancer.]

@Veronicawakefo2 @notthatjj @cathydevine56 @Juleschao When the environment in which genes are expressed during development changes from that which evolved them, is every changed developmental outcome to be rhetorically dismissed as mere "abnormality"... or do you engage with the world as it actually is? https://t.co/vNOfPyWsa0
