Chemical hair-straightening products may increase uterine cancer risk: NIH study
Fox News
A new study suggests women who use chemical hair-straightening products frequently may be more likely to develop uterine cancer due to the presence of endocrine-disruptors.
"We estimated that 1.64% of women who never used hair straighteners would go on to develop uterine cancer by the age of 70, but for frequent users, that risk goes up to 4.05%," study leader Alexandra White of the U.S. National Institute of Environmental Health Safety (NIEHS) explained.
The presence of so-called endocrine-disrupting chemicals in hair straighteners may be the cause of the link. Fragrances, parabens and phthalates may impact the endocrine's system ability to regulate hormones.
