Prenatal exposure to phthalates and phenols and infant endocrine-sensitive outcomes: The MIREC study
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Anogenital distance (AGD) and the second to fourth finger (2D:4D) digit ratio may be early markers of in utero androgen exposure for the infant. Phthalates and phenols have been identified as endocrine disrupting chemicals.
OBJECTIVES: To study the association between prenatal exposure to phthalates, bisphenol A (BPA) and triclosan (TCS) and AGD and the 2D:4D digit ratios.
