Oh makeup is very harmful.

Just because we switched to stuff that isn't dangerous in the short term, doesn't mean there aren't long term effects, they're just much harder to find.

Really an excellent example of one way to never deliver life-altering news. I don’t know if (or why) he expected me to have a meltdown or throw a tantrum, or if he is just used to seeing 75 year olds who like to be dramatic and need a Victorian fainting couch.

I mean this is hardly surprising considering how processed our food and water is these days, on top of all the chemicals and radiation we encounter both directly and indirectly affecting our bodies. Another major factor is the constant work and stress of our daily lives that causes fertility rates to drops for not only men but also women. As the newer generation we're no longer as keen on having children by a certain age, hence why now majority of couples that decide to have a child are mostly above 30 and this is where the rates for conceiving drop considerably. Give it another 10-15 years and the birth rates and more so the fertility rates will start to decline even more rapidly.

These studies are actually very hard to accurately understand. The fact is that we only started measuring fertility from 1970 and until now. The reality is that we humans are different from each other. The reproductional strategy from humans is very different than other apes. The chimpanzees/bonobos needs large testes because they mate a lot with everyone hence best sperm wins the race of reproduction. While guerillas are with small testes because basically only the alpha gets to have his fun. Humans are somewhere in between but we have a lot incommon with bonobos. Sexual activity has a lot to do with social interaction among our specie. The fact people have become obese, drink and smoke and accustomed to heat exposure might explain 99% of the drop.

[@jasonlarsen4945]

It's how they got the "female" handmaid's tale. If you pay close attention, it wasn't even the women who were infertile in handmaid's tale necessarily, they didn't bother to test the men because the society was so patriarchal they wouldn't entertain the notion that the women weren't the problem. A lot of the commander's wives weren't barren, but their husbands couldn't get the job done. The fertility doctors knew what was up. In both the movie and the show it is revealed, somewhat subtly.

I know this is two years old but I would love a team like this. The doctors to the lab. For two years I've dealt with crappy doctors and doing the same thing over and over again. A little humor goes a long way in a journey that is so difficult. People won't understand until they are going through fertility treatment. The daily injections, the vitamins, the months and months of trying different doses of different medicines, to get no where farther. The hope day in and day out that all the lifestyle changes, the exercising, the healthy food, the cutting out of things you have previously enjoyed, the mental anguish. Hopefully scientist can one day find out what's causing people to go through this suffering.

I had two things going on that the dr think caused it. My thyroid was hyper active causing Graves’ disease that caused issues with my pituitary gland. At that time I had my lumbar spine fused and was on high dose of opiates. The dr thinks one or both caused the issue. I have not taken daily opiates for 4 years now and my numbers have still not came up any so I’m not sure that was the issue.

Can someone please explain what the doctor meant when he said being taller than your male siblings means you were probably less exposed to testosterone when you were going through puberty? Why would being taller mean you are less exposed to testosterone?

[@rdizzy1]

I know exposure to high amounts of testosterone during puberty can stunt the growth of males, maybe it is the inverse of that.

[@VestigeFinder]

@@rdizzy1 is that why im short and have a huge dong

[@MRuby-qb9bd]

Has something to do with how the hormone affects growth plates or something. Just read something recently that was about eunuchs in Europe and Asia who were castrated pre-puberty that were taller on average than their non-castrated peers.

[@TheRelen222]

The growth plates tend to close faster if exposed to a growth spurt early. Those who get their growth spurt later in life have more time to grow slowly before their growth spurt, so they usually end up taller. There is some correlation between high testosterone levels and early puberty.

It is. Because the water is full of hormone acting like chemicals that industries throw into the water and can't be filtered. Animals like frogs can change sex if everyone is of the same sex in the area. Water full of estrogens can activate this mechanism and so the male frogs become female.

We will have a severe food shortage and crisis if we all eat organic. It uses too much precious resources of land and water to produce such small yields. The US simply needs to follow the EU regulations. The FDA does not have the consumer's best interests at heart.

[@atb12312]

@@MsBhappy Studies regarding whether organic farming uses more resources is inconclusive, and that is before you consider that an individual on an organic diet in theory would consume less food as it is more nutrient dense. However regardless the use of pesticides herbicides fungicides and rodenticides are poisoning what precious water we have left, not to mention entering human bodies. A sustainable approach has to be identified.
