Abstract
AbstractCancers of the female reproductive system are frequent in the general population and have been the subject of numerous studies for several years, which made evident the existence of several risk factors with different degrees of impact.The often hormone-sensitive nature of these cancers raises the question of the possible involvement of endocrine disruptors (EDs) in the onset of the diseases.This work reviews the scientific studies that have questioned the potential promoting effect of certain families of endocrine disruptors on cancers in women, in particular breast cancer. The article research was carried out on PubMed, and articles published from 2000 onward were selected.
