Diethylstilbestrol, also known as DES, is a synthetic estrogen that was prescribed to pregnant women between the 1940s and 1970s to prevent miscarriages or premature births. It was later discovered that DES had harmful effects on the developing fetus, including an increased risk of vaginal and cervical cancer in female offspring. Studies have also found that females who were exposed to DES in utero are more likely to identify as bisexual or lesbian.
