The study, by researchers from Denmark, Finland and France, looked at two groups of women who were questioned about their use of medication in pregnancy. The baby boys were examined at birth for any signs that the testes had failed to move into the scrotum before birth, ranging from mild to severe forms of the disorder.
来自丹麦、芬兰和法国的研究人员将实验对象分为两组，询问她们怀孕期间的用药状况。随后，男宝宝一出生就接受检查，以验证检测物质在出生前并没有按照正常程序进入阴囊，并对病变程度由轻到重进行划分。
The study shows using the drugs during pregnancy may increase the risk of boys having undescended testicles, which can lead to poor sperm quality and testicular cancer in later life. Women who used more than one type of painkiller simultaneously at any time while pregnant increased the risk seven-fold, on average.
