Exposure to Chlorine would most likely result in immediate respiratory distress.

Elevated concentrations of chlorine exposure result in pulmonary congestion, a condition marked by fluid accumulation in the lungs.

The toxic effects of chlorine are primarily caused by the reaction of elemental chlorine (Cl2) with water, which results in the production of hypochlorous and hydrochloric acid. The subsequent reaction between these two acids creates oxygen free radicals.

Chlorine gas is a hazardous material that could be used in industrial accidents or as a weapon by terrorists. This review will discuss pre-hospital considerations, summarise recent incidents involving chlorine catastrophic events and its use by terrorists, and offer strategies for the preliminary management of acute chlorine exposure events.

Testosterone is a hormone that controls gene expression in multiple organs and one of the most important metabolic regulators of sugar, lipids and proteins, thereby level higher than normal may cause the loss of the organism's homeostasis in women.
