2012 journal article
Perfluorinated Compounds and Subfecundity in Pregnant Women
Epidemiology, 23(2), 257–263.
Contributors: K. Whitworth, L. Haug, D. Baird, G. Becher, J. Hoppin* , R. Skjaerven, C. Thomsen, M. Eggesbo
MeSH headings : Adult; Alkanesulfonic Acids / adverse effects; Alkanesulfonic Acids / blood; Body Burden; Caprylates / adverse effects; Caprylates / blood; Case-Control Studies; Female; Fertility / drug effects; Fluorocarbons / adverse effects; Fluorocarbons / blood; Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry; Humans; Logistic Models; Norway / epidemiology; Odds Ratio; Parity; Pregnancy / drug effects

The results among nulliparous women did not support an association with subfecundity, and previous studies suggest that the body burden of perfluorinated compounds decreases during pregnancy and lactation through transfer to the fetus and to breast milk.
