Pregnant women exposed to a common chemical found in plastics are more likely to have daughters with aggressive and hyperactive behaviours. The first to examine the link between exposure to bisphenol A during pregnancy and behaviour problems in kids. The results are consistent with other studies showing the impact of the chemical on juvenile female animals. Bisphenol A has also been linked to reproductive problems and diabetes. It's used to make hard, clear reusable water bottles, baby bottles and resins that line the inside of metal food and beverage cans. Last October, Canada became the first country in the world to ban BPA-containing baby bottles. Some U.S. jurisdictions, including Cincinnati, have legislation that bans or limits the use of the chemical in consumer products.The study, published Tuesday in the journal "Environmental Health Perspectives," measured the BPA levels in urine samples taken from 249 pregnant women in Cincinnati at 16 and 26 weeks pregnancy and again when they gave birth.the chemical concentrations between 13 and 16 weeks of pregnancy were most strongly associated with behaviour problems in girls, but the study found no significant effect on boys. The girls will be tested again when they're five, at an age children's behaviours tend to be more stable. A study by a toxicologist and a graduate of the southern Ontario university found that the chemical lingers in the bodies of newborns and infants.
