I've read stories about this happening specifically with birth control. Imagine how different your life is from your ancestors just 200 years ago. You drink and eat from plastic containers using plastic utensils, drinking contaminated water and not doing anything to counteract it. I can't imagine how fucked and weak the "modern" man will be in just 100 years. Get glass containers, get rid of your plastic and stop drinking bad water before you turn into a fucking mutant.

Oh come on, now. I find it hard to believe that so much birth control is getting flushed it's causing a measurable spike in estrogen in the water.

I'm not saying there isn't a spike, I'm not saying people aren't flushing meds, I'm saying correlation doesn't mean causation.

Flushing meds? No, they're being passed in urine.

Oh okay. That's pretty alarming as well. Seems like they aren't doing a very good job cleaning the water lol
