Health Impacts: Lavender contains plant compounds that mimic or oppose the actions of sex hormones and are potential endocrine disruptors. However, since the single study that exists was limited to three subjects and the condition is classified as idiopathic, Million Marker still lists products with lavender oil on Approved Products lists. We do advise parents and guardians to take this into consideration if applying products with lavender to prepubescent children.
