¿Es tbhq seguro durante el embarazo?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classification or SCCS/CIR safety restriction was identified; animal developmental/teratology studies reported no teratogenic effects at doses >> human exposure while NTP feed studies show adverse effects only at very high oral doses. Topical cosmetic use is reported (typical product concentrations 0.1–1%), so dermal exposure is low but measurable. Sources: PubMed teratology study (no teratogenicity) and NTP toxicity summary; EPA reassessment noted uses. (PubMed: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/898088/, NTP summary: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12587017/, EPA: https://www.epa.gov/ingredients-used-pesticide-products/inert-reassessment-document-tertiary-butylhydroquinone-cas-no).

- ¿Es tbhq seguro durante la lactancia?
- No evidence of human lactation/milk-transfer data or harmonised reproductive hazard. Systemic uptake from normal topical cosmetic use is low but measurable; no reliable data show transfer into breastmilk, so exposure to breastfed infants would be expected to be low. Key sources: NTP feed/carcinogenicity report and reviews of TBHQ toxicology. (NTP: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12587017/, review: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11521724/).
- ¿Es tbhq seguro para la piel del bebé?
- Hazard and mechanism specific to infants were not identified. Because infant skin has a higher surface-area-to-weight ratio and an immature barrier, exposure score is increased by +1 from adult dermal exposure (adult e=1 → infant e=2). No infant-specific reproductive/toxic outcomes or harmonised classifications were found. Sources: NTP report on uses and concentrations in cosmetics; toxicology reviews. (NTP: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12587017/, review: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11521724/).
