    Glossary Teratogenicity

    ability of a substance to cause birth defects

    Teratogenicity refers to the ability of a substance to cause birth defects or developmental malformations in a developing embryo or fetus. This can occur when a pregnant woman is exposed to certain drugs, chemicals, or environmental factors that interfere with normal fetal development, potentially leading to physical or functional abnormalities in the newborn.
