Was just in the news here in Norway that a local study[1] of 300 boys found a overall positive correlation between the total amount of the majority of PFAS species and delayed onset of puberty. Overall the effect was around a 1 year delay between those that had were in the lowest PFAS group and those that were in the highest PFAS group.
Though if I interpreted it correctly, certain specific PFAS species had a negative correlation, so it could swing both ways depending on the mix of PFAS species one accumulated.
