This is due to the fact that many drugs are not adequately tested on pregnant women and have been demonstrated to cause birth defects.

Environmental Exposure

Environmental exposure is one of the major causes of birth defects. Genetic disorders are a common cause, but it's not the only cause. The presence of many different chemical compounds and toxins in the workplace, at home and in food can increase the risk of birth defects. Pesticides and fungicides are among the most commonly used.
