Introduction: Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) include a wide range of synthetic chemical substances that are ubiquitous in the environment and are identified as endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) which can alter the function of endocrine systems in humans and animals. Exposure to such chemicals during critical developmental phases, such as in utero has been associated with adverse reproductive and child health outcomes. Aims: The main aim of this thesis was to evaluate the effect of in utero exposure to hormone disruptors on birth outcomes and anogenital distance of the child in five European population-based cohort studies in Greece, Spain, England, Denmark and Norway. Methods: We measured dioxin-like activity in maternal and cord ...
