“…In animal studies with females individuals, ancestral (primary) EDC exposure can alter transgenerational litter size and anogenital distance, cause early puberty, disrupt estrous cyclicity, alter follicle numbers, decrease fertility, cause early reproductive aging, increase cysts in ovaries, alter sex steroid hormone levels, and cause adenomyosis. Furthermore, in males, ancestral EDC exposure can alter transgenerational anogenital distance, cause testes disease, cause early puberty, decrease fertility, decrease sperm count and motility, alter sperm morphology, and alter sex steroid hormone levels [ 35 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ].…”
