Effect Modification of Serum Omega-3 Fatty Acids on the Associations between Urinary Phthalate Biomarkers Mixture and Pregnancy Outcomes among Women Seeking Fertility Care
This study suggests adverse effects of phthalate exposure on pregnancy loss and live birth may be attenuated by intakes of n3PUFA. These results, if replicated, could inform clinical practice reducing the burden of infertility by phthalate exposure among the general population and improving pregnancy outcomes among subfertile couples. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP15942.
