    Seems Like something people should be definitely looking into to find out why, with the state of science in America It’s probably not going to be here

      Most likely its the same reason blood donation lowers microplastic levels in blood. Production of new cells that aren’t tainted with it. A woman’s blood volume increases by 40% during pregnancy. Of course ill freely admit thats just a hypothesis and you’re probably right, there would be benefit into studying it.

        That was my question too, I wonder if there is a reliable way to measure where it all went, or if it’s just diluted in the increased blood volume.

        There’s also the possibility that with are more careful with their intake during pregnancy, but that could be controlled for in survey data.
