Even though I know your a troll I have to respond to this because the ignorance and obvious intention to cause fear of one product irks me.
Hormone disruptor’s or what “scientists” believe are hormone disruptor’s are everywhere in our environment and unavoidable. They are found in the plastic linings of canned goods, plastic food wrappers, detergents, herbicides, hair dyes, cosmetics, cigarette smoke, and auto exhaust—to name just a few sources.
Many medications prescribed by doctors are considered hormone disruptor’s, the birth control pill being number 1 on the list.
Every thing you eat and drink contains hormone disruptor’s because of the pesticides that have leaked into the soil and are now present in any thing you eat thats not organically grown or fed. Even spices have been labeled as HD’s including hops so if you drink beer your screwed.
Most shampoos conditioner deodorant and even lotion contains them as well.
Most make up, perfumes and colognes are made using synthetic chemicals, Many of these ingredients do not need to be listed on the labels, but are known allergens, hormone disruptor’s, and irritants.
Pheromones are naturally secreted by mammals. You cant avoid them. If synthetic pheromones are HD’s then so would naturally secreted pheromones that we inhale from others all day, every day .
That would mean according to your broad statement that exposure to people would be a hormone disruptor’s as well thus possibly cause cancer which we all know is untrue.
In fact studies have shown that all the above HD’s affect our natural pheromone output negatively disrupting natural chemical communication in all mammals. Again they DO NOT show that pheromones in themselves are HD’s but are effected by HD’s .
There is one exception however in a controversial and radical book called Our Stolen Future, Hormonal Chaos which would have us all locked in padded sterile rooms if it held all of the truth.
One could argue that using synthetic mones is replacing what HD’s and EHD’s have destroyed.
I could go on and on however since most likely your an uninformed troll bent on spreading fear and misinformation, I wont bother.
However I wanted members to know that Pheromones are far less dangerous then the plastic container you put in your microwave this morning and then ate out of or the shampoo you used in the shower. They are no more dangerous then the perfume or cologne you use to smell nice.
Toxins are among us people. We have talked about it before in the lounge and theory sections. The problem lies in the sheer number of toxins in all products and foods. Not just in one product we use often. Its the accumulation of all these toxins over time that science believes triggers cancer cells.
Obviously the good DrShoemaker has no ideal that many of the members here have done extensive research on pheromone use and have come to our own conclusions and decisions without the help or influence of those selling them.
Personally for myself I think that yes there are many HD’s out there and I cant avoid them all. But I trade off some thing for others to avoid what I can and still feel safe using products I am not willing to give up because its not just that one product but the accumulation of them. I also detox 4 times a year and I did this before ever using mones not because I use them.
Here is a link were we discussed this subject indirectly
Here are links of information on how HD’s effect pheromone output and signaling

Here is the place they house many of current studies on DC’s and an explanation of how they affect our hormones.
e.hormone | Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals
e.hormone | The Hormones : Androgens
Again I have a file of info but I have to work today so I have no time to list them all. The one thing I do agree with from our troll is to research and come to your own conclusions. Dont fall victim to those who pray upon fear.
