Here's one resource:
http://www.environmentcalifornia.org...nol-a-overview

What's interesting is that in this source, it states that women with PCOS have higher levels of BPA in their system. Becomes a question of the chicken or the egg, IMHO... did the BPA trigger PCOS? Did PCOS predispose to retaining higher levels? Interesting...

Also of note: Type II diabetes, obesity, low sperm count.... Once again, it's not that it's one of those "this will kill you" things, not the way I've read about it. It's more that it can cause (or accelerate?) health problems, which will diminish quality of life.
