A study has identified 829 chemicals commonly found in consumer products, food, drinks, pesticides, medications, and workplaces that could potentially promote the development of breast cancer by altering the body's hormones. These chemicals have been linked to activating estrogen receptors and causing cells to overproduce estrogen and progesterone, increasing the risk of breast cancer. Researchers emphasize the need for new tools to identify environmental exposures contributing to this trend and develop prevention strategies to reduce the burden of the disease.
