Abstract

The effects of bisphenol A (BPA) on estrogen levels, fertility, obesity, and liver injury were investigated. Through a series of control results (CR1 to CR16), this study examined the multiple effects of BPA on biological processes. The findings show that when exposed to BPA, estrogen levels rise, fertility decreases, obesity increases through changes in liver weight, and damage can be observed through confocal imaging. These results varied in different settings, suggesting partial or full support for the original hypothesis that BPA has various effects on estrogen, fertility, obesity, and liver damage. It is worth noting that in some cases, such as CR5, estrogen levels are not affected by BPA, but fertility, obesity, and injury are. In contrast, CR16 significantly refuted this hypothesis, suggesting that BPA may not have a substantial effect on estrogen, fertility, obesity, or impairment in specific situations. Overall, the study highlights the complex relationship between BPA exposure and biological systems, underscoring the need for further research to fully understand the effects of this compound on estrogen regulation, fertility, obesity development, and liver health. These findings provide valuable insights into the complex interactions between BPA and human physiology.
