Most emerging contaminants have no clinical reference levels for safe vs. unsafe exposure, so often the best you can do is compare your exposure level to a reference distribution to see if you have relatively high levels.

The CDC tests thousands of people in the U.S. every two years for a panel of chemicals (including endocrine disruptors) via NHANES, so at very least you can compare your results to that to see if you are unusual relative to a nationally representative sample of Americans.
