Hormones, Intrauterine Health and Programming

The environment of the fetus in the womb is emerging as a key determinant not only of its immediate status but also of the offspring's long-term well-being. This largely started with reports of striking epidemiological associations between lower, but still normal, birth weight and a marked incr...
