Whenever we talk about a family that has no children and who has been married for several years and has no children, especially elderly people generally believe that it is the reason for women. What about men? Are they not responsible? Are we not clear about the situation of male infertility? Still unwilling to face the cause of male infertility. Below is an introduction to the hidden dangers of male infertility:
Phthalates are a class of chemicals that can play a softening role. It is widely used in hundreds of products such as toys, food packaging materials, medical blood bags and hoses, vinyl flooring and wallpaper, detergents, lubricants, personal care products (such as nail polish, hair spray, soap and shampoo). Today, we will introduce to you the causes of male infertility. Let's take a look together.
According to experts from the Department of Chemistry of Tsinghua University, research has shown that phthalates play a role similar to estrogen in humans and animals, which can disrupt the endocrine system, reduce the amount of semen and sperm in men, lower sperm motility, and abnormal sperm morphology. In severe cases, they can lead to testicular cancer, which is the "culprit" causing male reproductive problems.
Among cosmetics, nail polish has the highest content of phthalates, which is also contained in many aromatic ingredients of cosmetics. Experts say that this substance in cosmetics will enter the body through women's respiratory system and skin. If used too much, it will increase women's risk of breast cancer and harm the reproductive system of their future male babies.
Experts have found that soft plastic toys and children's products containing phthalates may be imported by children. If placed long enough, it can lead to the dissolution of phthalates exceeding safe levels, which can harm children's liver and kidneys, and can also cause premature puberty in children.
In order to reduce the harm of phthalates to human body, it is better not to use foam plastic containers to soak instant noodles. Do not use PVC (containing phthalate components) plastic containers to heat food in a microwave oven. The correct method is to move the food to a heat-resistant glass or ceramic container for heating.
