Our bioscience friends have noted a correlation between pre-natal Tylenol (I don’t know where you’re from, so I don’t know the trade name that will be familiar to you) exposure, autism, and ADHD. It’s still controversial, but I’m of the opinion that the purveyors of the world’s most popular analgesic are muddying the waters, not unlike Big Tobacco did decades ago.
Its Tylenol where I am, im from SoCal. Anyways correlation doesnt mean causation it could be any number of things, so until further research has been conducted such things must be assumed to be unknown. Also doubt it would include me, my autism is most certainly genetic. For some context I was diagnosed at three, it was the violence and cleverness that got me diagnosed as asperger.
Huh, guess that aspect of knowledge didnt rub off on me from my grandmother. Still I suspect the pseudo lobotomy did something to you, even if it didnt cause autism.
What I have is the “instructions don’t make sense to me so it took me years and years to learn to tie my shoes and I have to figure everything out from first principles”-thing. I couldn’t tell you if that’s autism. Autism seems to be a big tent.
Yeah I aint a chemist so I couldnt get through a proper source. So hows bout you give me the TLDR and we can work from there?

In my case it seems likely caused by my brain being lanced by a large needle in utero. But who knows? Maybe a little Tylenol too.
How the fuck does that even happen?!
Amniocentesis injury. It doesn’t happen much anymore because these days the administering physician typically is guided by ultrasound imaging.
