How Can Toxicological Research Aid in Preventing Congenital Hypothyroidism?
Toxicological research is vital in identifying and mitigating environmental risk factors that contribute to CH. By understanding the mechanisms through which toxins and EDCs affect thyroid function, researchers can develop strategies to reduce exposure and implement regulations to limit the release of harmful substances into the environment. Public health initiatives can also educate communities about the risks associated with environmental toxins and promote safer practices.
