A Prospective Analysis of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances from Early Pregnancy to Delivery in the Atlanta African American Maternal–Child Cohort
We found that the concentrations of most PFAS increased during pregnancy, and the magnitude of variability differed by individual PFAS. Future studies are needed to understand the influence of within-person PFAS variability during and after pregnancy on birth outcomes. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP14334.
