potential dangers to a developing fetus causing birth defects

Teratogenic risks refer to the potential dangers that certain substances or environmental factors pose to a developing fetus, potentially causing birth defects or developmental abnormalities. These risks are particularly critical during pregnancy, as exposure to teratogens—such as certain medications, chemicals, or infections—can interfere with normal fetal development, leading to long-term health issues.
