Hello, folks. I have a colleague who is pregnant. However, I have noticed that she has been using alcohol in spite the fact she is pregnant. I would like to know something about the possible results of fetal exposure to alcohol. I hope someone could help me with this. Thanks in advance.

Hello. Consuming alcohol during pregnancy can cause fetal alcohol syndrome. There are many signs and symptoms. It can lead to a mental retardation. There can also be deformities of joints and limbs. Heart problems can occur as well. Neurological disorders are also possible. You should check for details with a pediatrician or obstetrician. I hope they will help you. Bye!
