Writing in Environmental Health Perspectives, a researcher from the Nofer Institute of Occupational Medicine in Poland reported the results of a review of studies investigating the effects of occupational factors on fertility and related reproductive outcomes published between the mid-1970s and 1991. These studies attempted to identify maternal occupational exposures that could cause infertility and related outcomes such as hormonal imbalances, menstrual disorders, spontaneous abortions, stillbirths, and premature delivery and paternal occupational exposures that could cause infertility, hormone imbalances, and sperm abnormalities. The author concluded that while the published literature supports the hypothesis that, in general, working women have a tendency of higher risk of unsuccessful reproductive outcomes, it provides little evidence of exactly which exposures may be causative or even what proportion of these are related to occupational factors.
