A study from Stanford has raised concerns about the impact of chemicals on fetal development. Expectant mothers may be exposed to numerous substances, up to 45, that are used daily. These chemicals can have negative effects, altering fetal development and leading to premature births.

Many of these substances are beyond the control of the pregnant individual. Further information on this topic can be found in the original report, which explores the issue in more depth, highlighting the potential risks associated with daily exposure to certain chemicals.
