Product & Environment Safety Certification

    WombSafe Certified

    Protecting and advancing women's reproductive and hormonal health by certifying foods, products, and environments that are free from harmful chemicals and endocrine disruptors.

    Mission

    To protect and advance women's reproductive and hormonal health by certifying foods, products, and environments that are free from harmful chemicals, endocrine disruptors, and other toxins—empowering women to make safer choices for lifelong womb and hormonal wellness.

    Vision

    A world where every product touching women's daily lives is certified safe for reproductive health, eliminating preventable hormonal disruption and reproductive conditions caused by toxic chemical exposure.

    The Chemical Crisis in Women's Health

    Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are ubiquitous in modern life and disproportionately impact women's reproductive health

    Disproportionate Impact on Women

    More than 90% of Americans had detectable BPA in a nationally representative NHANES 2003-2004 sample

    Women have higher chemical exposure rates than men due to greater use of personal care products and household chemicals

    Black populations carry a PM2.5 pollution burden 54% higher, and Hispanic populations 63% higher, than the population overall

    PCOS and Fibroid-Specific Chemical Links

    Scientific evidence demonstrates clear connections between chemical exposure and reproductive conditions

    PCOS and Chemical Exposure

    Women with PCOS have significantly higher BPA levels compared to healthy controls

    Source: Calafat et al., Environ Health Perspect 2008

    Phthalate exposure is associated with modestly higher PCOS odds in published cohorts, roughly 1.5-2.5 times

    Fibroids and Endocrine Disruptors

    Prenatal DES exposure is associated with increased uterine fibroid risk

    Black women have significantly higher urinary phthalate metabolite levels, linked in part to personal care product use
