Hi ladies,
I thought this was quite interesting for those of you who have been diagnosed with ‘unexplained infertility’. UCSF has had some wonderful research break throughs in the last year, and one them was in the field of Endocrinology or infertility. Here’s an excerpt of the article which talks about this topic. I hope you find it helpful….
Endocrinology
UCSF scientists were the first to identify the full effect of a commonly used weed killer, atrazine, on human cells. They reported that the herbicide alters hormone signaling, increasing the activity of a gene associated with abnormal human birthweight. Atrazine, they reported, also targets a gene that is amplified in the uteruses of women with unexplained infertility.
