Pollution leads to a reduction in penis size

In the pages of his book “Count Down”, Professor Shanna Swan of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, United States, has published several scientific findings on the effects of pollution on human fertility.

Precisely, one of the effects of pollution leads to a reduction in the size of the penis.

In 2017, he had already warned of a drop in the average sperm count in men in the West, which over the past four decades the amount has been cut to exactly half.

His research began in 2000 by experimenting with the consequences of the syndrome with rats. phthalate.

While the reduction in penis size is due to the presence of the chemical phthalategives birth to babies with penile deformities and narrowing.

Exposure to this substance can cause hormonal problems that affect the endocrine system and therefore cause malformations in the fetus.

For the discovery, he exposed rats to this compound to test his scientific theory.

To the fact of phthalate, they can be present among certain items such as dolls and toys, food containers, cosmetics and detergents, among others.

According to Swan, these substances also produce an “existential crisis” in the fertility rate; that is, a reduction.

For this scientist, the gravity is such that “it is possible that most couples will have to resort to assisted reproduction by 2045”.

In addition, pollution affects not only the male population, but also women.

“The modern world threatens sperm count, disrupts male and female reproductive development and endangers the future of the human race,” said the professor.
