The first indications that hormonal imbalance during pregnancy may result in abnormal development of the fetus goes back to the 1930s. In 1939 researchers at Northwestern University Medical School reported that when pregnant rats were given an extra dose of external estrogen, the offspring suffered structural defects in their sex organs, both females ...

Abstract This book addresses the biological effects of the reasonably large number of classes of compounds that have been recognized as endocrine disrupters. These compounds have been found to persist as pollutants in the environment, and have been blamed for causing developmental disorders and/or fertility problems in fish ...

Endocrine Disruption and Hypospadias
2004The complexity of human biology makes it impossible to know for certain if endocrine disruption accounts for human penile deformities. Toxicologists point out that an overall assessment of risk must include other factors in addition to exposure including absorption, metabolism, excretion, bioaccumulation and other chemical interactions (Harrison et al.,

Chapter 2 reviews the origin of the concept of endocrine disruption and presents a comprehensive treatment of the changing and often competing definitions of endocrine disruptors. The factors influencing the different definitions, impacts of including specific terms, such as “adverse” or “harm,” in this definition, and the important influences ...
