    Sorry to hear that. What were their age ranges? It’s well known that age is the biggest influence in miscarriage chance.

      I’m sure there are more sources, I"m just lazy today.

      Studies show that EDCs can cause declines in sperm count and quality. It’s suggested that high levels of these chemicals can cause impaired female reproduction or an increased chance of miscarriage. While debatable, some research shows that endocrine disruptors can cause higher chances of developing endometriosis in females.

        Don’t get me wrong, I’m not debating that endocrine disruptors interfere with the reproductive process. I just don’t think anybody has proven that they’re a major issue YET
