It absolutely is. Out of all of the dangerous substances that we create, it's insane to think that something that is mostly considered safe by society is even trickeling down in utero to the unborn.

How does that work, unless it's a trans-mother.

It offers stronger benefits than the powdered or liquid formulas that are out there though, especially with how adulterated formulas are.

Then it would also be in the mother's poop and that is the opposite of what the study found.

Possibly another big contributor to hormonal damage in children from pseudo estrogens in plastics. Could go a long way to explain the sharp rise in homosexuals, transsexuals, femininity in men, and the mental health crisis.

With men, an immediate concern would be the damage towards reproductive organs and physiology, honestly. You guys are having much higher instances of testicular maladies at this point. In turn that could trickle down and affect other things as well.

Fertility is down also, but the way I see it a 40% lower sperm count doesn't prevent you from having kids but chemical castration does. So does homosexuality.
Not too much point in the 60% left when there's an issue with sperm quality, or the viability of the fetus while in utero. I found an article that I'm going through in patches. I'll post it here for you too.

I wasn't aware of that, so thank you. I can't recall taking it often with either pregnancy, but I'm sure that I took some. Feels a bit damning. I did dig around a bit and find information on the use for adult males though as well for you.
