Dan Rosenfield

Classmate Dan Rosenfield, E.T., Ed.D. has been named the first moderator of DES Action USA's new DES Son's Support and Discussion Group.

If you’re not familiar with DES, it’s a synthetic estrogen that was administered to mothers-to-be from 1938 to 1971 (our moms?).  Its purpose was to minimize the possibility of a miscarriage and ensure a successful pregnancy. 

Unfortunately, side effects impacted not only the developing fetus (us? – DES Daughters & Sons ) but have shown up in our children (DES Grandchildren). 

Sadly, a lack of medical records prevents knowing exactly who took DES but there are some signs you can look for.  Take a few minutes to look at the DES Action USA’s website.  There’s a host of information available without joining. 

Or feel free to contact Dan Rosenfield directly at:  danwr67@gmail.com  for more information. All communications are confidential.

Awareness is our greatest ally.
