Microplastics found in every human testicle in study.
Scientists say discovery may be linked to decades-long decline in sperm counts in men around the world.
Microplastics have been found in human testicles, with researchers saying the discovery might be linked to declining sperm counts in men.
The scientists tested 23 human testes, as well as 47 testes from pet dogs. They found microplastic pollution in every sample.
The human testicles had been preserved and so their sperm count could not be measured. However, the sperm count in the dogs’ testes could be assessed and was lower in samples with higher contamination with PVC. The study demonstrates a correlation but further research is needed to prove microplastics cause sperm counts to fall.
Sperm counts in men have been falling for decades, with chemical pollution such as pesticides implicated by many studies. Microplastics have also recently been discovered in human blood, placentas and breast milk, indicating widespread contamination of people’s bodies. The impact on health is as yet unknown but microplastics have been shown to cause damage to human cells in the laboratory.

“ Microplastics found in every human testicle in study.”
Who is checking?
Leave me alone sickos.
“The scientists tested 23 human testes”
!!!!! 23 !!!!!!
And from that tiny study that want to claim “every”- all human testes have microplastics in them??? That is not “science”.
“Testicles”?
Another reason for trans surgery
Its a sample, a small one, but presumably random.
It is a statistically meaningful result, if the testing is valid, etc.
Its worth checking a larger, random sample.
“Every” means all those in the sample.
This is the problem with press reports. Ambiguous wording can create unwarranted reactions.
“Hi, I’m from the Government and I’m here to test your testicle.”
And here we though the government was intrusive!
"Only" 974 that they'll admit to here in Nevada...
I got a push poll about micro plastics some time ago. They asked me some questions, gave me some “information” and then asked me the same questions.
Why does the word “micro” always seem to come up when mentioning my southern provinces?
Will the ecofascists demand that they be ..recycled?
Searching every testicle, including on Trans.
Just too funny.
I guess that’s why they call them what they do...
Who do you think funded their “study”?
Ha ha ha! Jokes on them... I don’t have any.... oh wait, did I say that out loud?
And all 23 of them probab.y worked Ina microplastic factory lo.
No idea, but I suspect Fauci is funding microplastics vaccine development studies in China...
Ha!
