Well for starters there were no where NEAR as many chemicals used then as there are now, and they were not broken down to be made cheaper as they are today... and regulations were stricter....so the problem was not as widespread, not to mention m/c's and infertility was not spoken about as openly then as now.....so that arguement doesn't hold much ....
This is not new news. People will either believe it or not. The lack of information and STUDIES to prove this is due to government influences, big company money etc. It's not some "myth" that people made up.
I just think its very naive for people to take it lightly.
Too many people take the road of "well when they ban it I will stop...it could be too late then. Many things are passed through channels even when they KNOW harm will come. Just pays to take a better look at our country, our envirnoment and our lives and see whats really important and worth looking into.
ETA- In 2003 the EPA announced the harm these chemicals could do as well.....people choose to ignore it and then wonder why they have unexplained ailments. They stated BPA was harmful and babies of Mice in studies DIED when it was injested.....YET BABY BOTTLES with BPA were JUST TAKEN off shelves last year... 5 years LATER. So if you trust anyone to look out for you, think again.
We do so much research on what Dr. to see, what drugs to take. To avoid these chemicals, do a simple Google search, you will get answers.
Europeans have believed these chemicals caused infertility for YEARS now and there guidelines for its use is soooo strict. We come no where close in our Nation.

Re: Article on Yahoo about chemicals & pregnancy
I wasn't taking it lightly. I was just commenting like as in "If we knew then what we know now"....
I know, I feel like sometimes Europeans are more advanced than us.
