Does lead cause infertility?
In both men and women, lead has been associated with infertility. Harmful effects of this heavy metal have been observed even at low levels of exposure. Thus, exposure to lead remains a public health problem, especially for reproductive health.
Does lead affect reproductive health?
There is enough evidence that lead exposure can harm reproductive health of both men and women. The harmful effects of lead have been mostly observed in occupationally exposed people. Nevertheless, in recent decades, research has demonstrated that these damages can occur at levels of lead formerly considered harmless.
