Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) showed variety and widely distributed in the environment. The presence of EDCs was the most typical in water bodies. EDCs in water accumulated in human and other organism to a certain extent would harmfully interfere the normal functioning of the nervous system, immune system and endocrine system. This paper reviewed the existing form of EDCs, the harmfulness of EDCs, the detection methods and treating methods for EDCs in water environment. In view of the current situation of EDCs pollution in the water body, the specific measures for the future treatment of EDCs were established.
