BACKGROUND: Personal care products frequently contain endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) including parabens and phthalates, which can alter glucose metabolism. The postpartum period is a time of rapid metabolic change, but whether EDC-associated product use impacts postpartum glucose metabolism is unknown.
METHODS: We included 270 participants from the Boston, MA-based Environmental Reproductive and Glucose Outcomes (ERGO) pregnancy cohort with data on self-reported personal care product use at ≤4 pregnancy visits (median: 11, 19, 26, 36 weeks of gestation) and 1 postpartum visit (median: 9 weeks). We quantified postpartum hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting insulin, fasting- and 2-h glucose post-75-g oral glucose tolerance test, and calculated homeostatic model assessment for insulin sensitivity (HOMA2-S) and beta-cell function (HOMA2-B). Using covariate-adjusted linear regression, we estimated visit-specific associations of product use with postpartum glycemic outcomes.
RESULTS: Associations of product use with postpartum glycemic measures were mixed. Users of certain hair products had lower postpartum insulin sensitivity compared to non-users (e.g., Visit1 hair gel/spray: 22.8% difference [95% CI: 39.2, -1.9] in mean HOMA2-S). Conversely, users of products like deodorant, liquid- and bar soap, had higher insulin sensitivity and lower glucose levels (e.g., postpartum deodorant: 32.1% difference [95% CI: 7.0, 63.1] in mean HOMA2-S; -3.1 mg/dL [95% CI: 6.3, -0.04] mean fasting glucose). Associations with other products were inconsistent across timepoints or null.
CONCLUSION: Use of certain personal care products during the perinatal period was associated with altered postpartum glucose metabolism. Larger studies are needed to understand the impacts of product use patterns on glycemic outcomes.
