BPA in clothing is absorbed through the skin at levels that are harmful to health.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
0 sources for · 3 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that BPA in clothing is absorbed through the skin at levels that are harmful to health?

Unclear. The SCCS opinions and one review indicate that dermal BPA exposure from clothing is a minor route, at least 25 times lower than dietary exposure, but none of the placed sources quantifies absorbed skin dose or establishes a harmful health level from clothing.
