Sollte ich bha in der Schwangerschaft meiden? | VeriMom
Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA, CAS 25013-16-5) is listed in EU sources as a reproductive hazard category Repr.2 (H361) and the SCCS recently evaluated dermal safety (concluding safe up to 0.07% for dermal products) which supports a 'suspected' reproductive hazard classification rather than confirmed teratogen status. Animal studies show reproductive/developmental effects (delayed sexual maturation, reduced hormones, organ weight changes) at high oral doses, supporting demonstrated mechanistic effects (endocrine/reproductive system changes). The typical dermal exposure from cosmetics is low but measurable, consistent with SCCS margin-of-safety-based limits. (Sources: SCCS advice; ECHA substance information; CIR safety assessment; animal studies).

- Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA, CAS 25013-16-5) is listed in EU sources as a reproductive hazard category Repr.2 (H361) and the SCCS recently evaluated dermal safety (concluding safe up to 0.07% for dermal products) which supports a 'suspected' reproductive hazard classification rather than confirmed teratogen status.

- Ist bha während des Stillens sicher?
- Because BHA carries a suspected reproductive hazard classification (H361) and animal data show endocrine-related changes and effects across gestation and lactation periods, breastfeeding is conservatively scored as 'suspected' hazard (h=2) with demonstrated mechanistic evidence (m=2). Dermal cosmetic use yields low but measurable systemic exposure; SCCS dermal assessment applies to dermal routes and supports limited exposure from cosmetic use (thus e=1). There is limited direct human lactation-specific data, so the assessment relies on animal and dermal exposure evaluations.
- Ist bha sicher für Babyhaut?
- Hazard and mechanism remain at 'suspected' (h=2, m=2) because the underlying classification and animal reproduction/endocrine data do not provide infant-specific evidence to change hazard/mechanism scores. Exposure (e) is increased by +1 for baby skin (per your rules) because infant skin has a higher surface-area-to-weight ratio and immature barrier—so if adult dermal absorption is measurable (SCCS evaluated dermal exposure), baby exposure is considered moderate (e=2). No infant-specific dermal toxicokinetic studies were identified.
