Pesticide exposure may harm fertility: new study recruits 634 women
NCT ID NCT07231510
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether chlordecone, a pesticide still present in the environment in Guadeloupe, is linked to fertility problems in women. Researchers will measure a key fertility hormone (AMH) and count egg follicles in 634 women seeking fertility treatment. The goal is to understand if past exposure to this chemical reduces ovarian reserve.
