Effects of Fluoride Toxicity on Female Reproductive System of Mammals: A Meta-Analysis

Biol Trace Elem Res. 2024 May 6. doi: 10.1007/s12011-024-04203-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTConsiderable integrative efforts have been made to investigate the effects of fluoride on female reproductive organs since the last years. The ingestion of fluoride causes adverse effects on human health like causing skeletal fluorosis, dental fluorosis, bone fractures, kidney problems, decrease birth rates, weakening of thyroid functionality, and impair intelligence, particularly in children. In this review, we discuss the adverse effects of fluoride on female reproductive organs and presented certain remedies. A total of 53 papers on the effect of fluoride on female reproductive organs, including 6 population surveys were examined. Google Scholar, Google, Research Gate, PubMed, and the International Journal of Fluoride have all been searched for fluoride research papers. Various doses and pathological effects have been described in this review article.PMID:38709367 | DOI:10.1007/s12011-024-04203-7
