What is the Link Between These Chemicals and Cancer?
The primary concern with estrogen mimicking chemicals is their potential role in hormone-related cancers such as breast, ovarian, and prostate cancer. By mimicking estrogen, these chemicals can disrupt the normal hormonal balance, leading to increased cell proliferation and, potentially, cancer. Several studies have shown a correlation between high exposure to xenoestrogens and an elevated risk of developing these types of cancers.
