Effects of exposure to bisphenol A during pregnancy on offsprings: A review of epidemiological studies

  • Bisphenol A (BPA) has a strong estrogen-like effect, mainly affecting adolescents and children who are in fast growth and development stages. With deeper study in this topic, the effect of prenatal BPA exposure is increasingly concerned. According to foreign studies, the exposure to BPA during pregnancy exhibits complicated influences on the awareness, behaviors, and health of their offsprings. Less relevant studies are identified in China and other Asia areas, moreover, the applied evaluation indicators are relatively simple. Due to the differences between the East and the West, we propose to explore the status and effect of BPA exposure in pregnant women under the specific circumstances in China in virtue of the rapid development of epidemiology cohorts in recent years, and provide convincing population-based evidences to standardize the use of BPA, improve pregnant women's living standard, and protect children's health.
