My diagnosis with PCOS is what triggered us to become interested in hormone disrupting chemicals 6+ years ago. I know previous studies have linked BPA with central adiposity and insulin resistance in men. (and insulin resistance is often a hallmark of PCOS). Our thought here has been that our children already are predisposed to insulin resistance and don't need any more of a push in that direction, which is why I've been cautious about BPA since DS was born 6+ years ago.
I'm curious where the research on this will go.
