During development, reproductive issues are sensitive to chemicals, specifically testicular and ovarian tissues, and exposure may result in longlasting effects including altered postnatal development, behavioral changes, or other changes that limit reproductive success. 1 exposure need only occur during specific windows of alter the organization of reproductive tissues and cause toxicity.
Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is the most widely recognized chemical causing reproductive toxicity. Administered to pregnant women until the 1970s, DES exposure in uterus led to a lot of reproductive problems in daughters and a higher incidence of a rare form of cervicovaginal cancer.

Tampons Environmental Problems

1. Large Waste Amount Production Since tampons are not recyclable, they create a large amount of waste. ...

2. Harmful Chemicals Contamination Tampons can contain harmful chemicals. ...

3. Toxic Shock Syndrome Tampons can increase the risk of toxic shock syndrome. Plastic-related environmental issues
Each tampon only contains a small amount of plastic each – however, the sheer volumes involved are staggering. Using plastics causes significant issues for the environment. Most plastics are derived from fossil fuels. As well as being a non-renewable resource, when extracting them from the environment they can have a significant negative impact including water pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and soil degradation.  The manufacture of tampons, clearly, does not keep the fossil fuel industry afloat on its own – but it certainly contributes to the problem.

How do condoms affect the environment?
In addition to the problem of the packaging, some condoms are not made of latex. They are the only products suitable for those allergic to this material and their substitute is polyurethane, a synthetic plastic material that is not biodegradable and is therefore very harmful to the environment.

These functions are divided between the primary and secondary, or accessory, reproductive organs. The primary reproductive organs, or gonads, consist of the ovaries and testes. These organs are responsible for producing the egg and sperm cells gametes), and hormones. These hormones function in the maturation of the reproductive system, the development of sexual characteristics, and regulation of the normal physiology of the reproductive system. All other organs, ducts, and glands in the reproductive system are considered secondary, or accessory, reproductive organs. These structures transport and sustain the gametes and nurture the developing offspring.

Harmful effects of exposure to air pollution during pregnancy have been shown for different birth outcomes: higher infant mortality, lower birth weight, impaired lung development, increased later respiratory morbidity, and early alterations in immune development.

Although air pollution isn’t healthy for any living creature, it has the most severe impact on pregnant women, children, babies, those with respiratory problems, and the elderly.

An interesting study in Beijing—one of the world’s worst cities for air pollution—made strides in connecting air pollution to low birth weight. Researchers studied women who were pregnant during the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, a two-month span when the city was mandated to lower emissions and improve air quality. The study found that women who were in their eighth month of pregnancy during the Olympics (compared to women who delivered during the same calendar months years prior) delivered babies who were 0.8 ounces heavier. It’s still unknown which trimester, month, or week is most vulnerable to the effects of air pollution, but the study is nevertheless compelling.

Asthma – Air pollution exacerbates asthma. In pregnant women, this can be dangerous because asthma can cause preeclampsia, a condition that causes elevated blood pressure and decreased function of the liver and kidneys. When asthma is well-managed, you and your baby should be fine. However, untreated asthma can cause your baby to suffer from lack of oxygen, leading to poor growth, premature birth, and low birth weight. Research has also found that exposure to air pollution can increase your baby’s chances of developing asthma later in life because particulate matter pollution breaches the placenta.

We start from the fact that what are the most conventional menstrual hygiene products, such as pads and tampons, use plastic derivatives, cotton that requires pesticides and other chemicals such as bleaches, which pollute the soils and, in addition, contribute to the accumulation of plastics, forming authentic islands, in the Pacific Ocean.

How does pollution affect pregnancy and children at birth?
It was concluded that emissions from heating, factories and vehicles directly influence the birth weight of babies. Thus, there is a correlation between baby weight and pollution: the numbers of babies born with less than 2.5 kg are higher in areas with poorer air quality.

The problem appears because these materials are not biodegradable and, according to experts, it would take up to 800 years to decompose into microplastics.

Tampons and pads, whose compounds are mostly "pure plastic", can take up to 800 years to break down into microplastics, according to various investigations, such as one carried out by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). ).

Nearly 17 million babies under one year of age live in areas where air pollution exceeds international limits by at least six times, a situation that exposes them to breathing polluted air and jeopardizes their brain development, according to our latest publication. More than 75% of these children – 12 million – live in South Asia.

"Pollutants don't just damage babies' developing lungs, they can permanently damage their developing brains and therefore their futures," said UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake. "Protecting children from air pollution doesn't just benefit children. It also benefits their societies, by reducing health care costs, increasing productivity, and creating a safer, cleaner environment for all."

Tampons and pads, whose compounds are mostly "pure plastic", can take up to 800 years to break down into microplastics.

How much do pads and tampons pollute?


Precisely this study, echoed by the Sileu company on the occasion of the celebration of the XXV Conference of the Parties to the Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP25), which is being held these days in Madrid, warns that the majority of Microplastics in the oceans come from synthetic textiles, including menstrual hygiene products. A woman has her period for an average of 40 years, about five days a month, and uses about two
or more pads or tampons each day.
Therefore, it is estimated that a woman during her fertile life uses and discards at least 4,800 pads or tampons. This explains why 20 trillion pieces of pad and tampon waste have accumulated in half a century.In the same way, as Sileu has commented, the "super absorbent" gel used in these products is polyacrylate, a substance that is associated with cases of toxic shock syndrome, a serious condition caused by bacteria and that associated with the use of menstrual hygiene products.

In fertile women, pollution reduces the fertility rate and increases the risk of miscarriage

Regarding fertility, there have been several reports indicating that the quality and quantity of human sperm is facing a serious decline. Several environmental factors would be attributable to this potential decline in male fertility. These include heavy metals and various chemical agents widely used in agriculture and industry.

A polluted environment during pregnancy can impair the development of the fetus and alter its birth weight. The higher the rate of pollution to which mothers are exposed, the lower the baby's birth weight.

According to the World Health Organization, 15 million children are born prematurely each year (before the 37th week of pregnancy) worldwide. This early birth is the leading cause of death during the first month of life, and the second most common cause of death from pneumonia, before the age of five. In fact, it is considered that 15% of deaths in children under this age are due to their premature delivery.

.It's not that there is an effect those children will feel now. It's that this is indicative of the lungs not growing optimally, which means they won't actually attain maximum lung development later in life.

The research looked at 2,000 London schoolchildren over five years and found that exposure to dangerous particles was linked to around a five percent reduction in lung capacity.

Today Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London) was in New Cross to launch one of five new Low Emission Bus Zones - an attempt to tackle air quality on the most polluted roads with what are being described as the cleanest buses available. They'll add to the two existing zones already launched last year.

With seven low emission bus zones now launched, the plan is to introduce another five, and by 2020 the aim is for all buses in London to be as clean as possible.
