Sollte ich diethylhexyl phthalate in der Schwangerschaft meiden? | VeriMom
DEHP (CAS 117-81-7) has a harmonised CLP classification H360FD (may damage fertility; may damage the unborn child) under ECHA/Annex VI, which by calibration mandates h=3. Mechanistically, DEHP and its primary metabolite MEHP cause well-characterised anti-androgenic and developmental effects in multiple animal studies and alter placental development, supporting m=3. Because DEHP is prohibited from use in cosmetic products under the EU Cosmetics Regulation (Annex II), topical cosmetic exposure during pregnancy should be negligible (e=0) for cosmetic-grade use; however systemic exposures from other sources (medical devices, contaminated food, dust) remain relevant but are outside 'cosmetic use' exposure scoring.

- DEHP (CAS 117-81-7) has a harmonised CLP classification H360FD (may damage fertility; may damage the unborn child) under ECHA/Annex VI, which by calibration mandates h=3.

- Ist diethylhexyl phthalate während des Stillens sicher?
- Harmonised H360FD classification and abundant animal data showing reproductive/developmental toxicity and endocrine disruption justify h=3 and m=3 for breastfeeding context. DEHP has been shown to transfer and produce metabolites that are biologically active; although breastmilk transfer and infant internal dose are described in the literature for environmental exposures, cosmetic topical use in the EU is banned so cosmetic-source exposure is expected to be negligible (e=0).
- Ist diethylhexyl phthalate sicher für Babyhaut?
- Because DEHP is harmonised as H360FD (CMR Category 1B) the hazard to infants is scored h=3 by calibration. Mechanistic data (anti-androgenic effects, endocrine disruption, developmental effects in rodents) support m=3. For cosmetic topical use, DEHP is listed in EU Annex II (prohibited), so exposure from cosmetics is expected to be negligible (e=0). If DEHP were present in a formulation (e.g., contamination or in non‑EU markets), infant skin has higher absorption potential and the exposure score would be higher — but that scenario is outside compliant cosmetic use.
