How can Structural Anomalies be Prevented?

While not all structural anomalies can be prevented, certain measures can reduce the risk:
Prenatal care: Regular prenatal visits allow for early detection and management of potential issues.
Folic acid supplementation: Taking folic acid before and during early pregnancy can significantly reduce the risk of neural tube defects.
Avoiding harmful substances: Pregnant women should avoid alcohol, tobacco, and certain medications that could harm fetal development.
Managing health conditions: Proper management of maternal health conditions like diabetes and hypertension can minimize risks to the developing fetus.
