Paracetamol use in pregnancy and girls' reproductive health

A new study has shown that taking paracetamol (Tylenol) during pregnancy may be associated with changes in girls' reproductive organs. It was found that they have smaller ovaries, fewer eggs, and lower levels of a hormone related to ovarian reserve, which could potentially affect their fertility in the future. The study did not establish that the medication directly causes these changes, and further research is encouraged to determine its impact on reproductive health. Nonetheless, the World Health Organization and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists continue to consider acetaminophen a safe option when needed and used under medical supervision, although some risks are associated with frequent or excessive use.
