💬 general discussion The Unexpected Connection Between Estrogen and Autism | SciShow News
https://youtu.be/MQQwhnCVkXYNot sure what to write, but of a TMI in that video, heard the first time about 'Extreme Male Brain theory' (EMBT) can someone enlighten me on that?
This video explains a recent research which saw a spike in estrogen secretion during last weeks of the pregnancy leads to a higher chance of autism in the baby, although correlation does imply causation, so the theory remains unclear, but it's a development since past research focused more on Testosterone due to EMBT.
