Pauliina Damdimopoulou is a Professor of Reproductive Biology at the Department of Women's and Children's Health at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. With over 15 years of experience in endocrinology, reproductive biology and toxicology, Pauliina’s team are investigating the effects of chemicals on female fertility. Her ambition is to generate evidence-based information on the risks of chemical exposures and pharmaceutical treatments to human ovaries and oocytes, and to thereby contribute to the development of a chemically safer society. She co-leads the Environmental Endocrinology Focus Area of the European Society of Endocrinology. Instagram: @damdimopoulou_lab https://ki.se/en/people/pauliina-damdimopoulou Do you know how many untested or minimally tested chemicals there are in our environment, how they are tested, and how they can affect our health, fertility and the health of our children? Pauliina knows the answers to these questions. And it’s really worrying to hear her talk about this. She said we should be upset, we should be angry, and we need to act. Plastics are a major issue, and they’re everywhere. But it doesn’t stop there — many of the products we use daily, including make-up, perfume, clothes wash, cleaning products and much more, contain chemicals like phthalates and parabens which can affect our hormones and health. These are all around us, yet we can take steps to reduce our exposure. I hope this podcast gives you the insight and confidence to cut down the chemicals in your life and support your long-term health.
