«Риск без пользы»
Хотя первоначально ДЭС назначали в надежде помочь женщинам, у которых могла быть трудная беременность, один акушер-гинеколог высказывается так: "ДЭС несет в себе риск без пользы" [44]." Не может быть оправданий дальнейшему продолжению такого риска.
Рекомендации к действию
- ДЭС следует запретить и как лекарственный продукт для людей, и для использования в качестве стимуляторов роста у животных, выращиваемых для употребления людьми.
- Правительствам следует изучить масштаб этой проблемы и по возможности выявить всех людей, подвергавшихся воздействию ДЭС, и предоставить им полную, точную информацию о проблемах, с которыми они могут столкнуться, а также обеспечить им необходимую медицинскую помощь.
- Работники здравоохранения должны быть информированы о том, как распознавать признаки воздействия ДЭС, и осуществлять мониторинг и лечение связанных с ним проблем здоровья.
- Университетам и работникам здравоохранения следует предпринять дальнейшие исследования последствий, которые воздействие ДЭС могло иметь на матерей, их детей и детей их детей (так называемое третье поколение).
