Radiation fallout can cause cancer and birth defects.
Yes, there are several teratogens that can cause birth defects through male exposure. There is documented evidence that exposure to Agent Orange that was used during the Vietnam War has caused birth defects in first and second generation births. Additionally, radiation can lead to issues for many generations afterward. There are some viruses that are mutagenic and can cause defects in progeny as well.
No; a teratogen is an agent that can cause birth defects.
It is potentially dangerous. The radiation level found in granite is enough to suppress the immune system, cause birth defects, and cause cancer. There are granite composite options which are not containing the level of radiation that is dangerous.
Birth defects are possible in pregnant patients taking Cipro. It has not been proven that Cipro is the cause of the defects, however.
no.
Smoking is know to cause premature birth, low birth weight, and premature rupture of membranes, but can possibly cause more serious birth defects.
There are thousands of identified birth defects. Birth defects are abnormal developments present at birth that can cause physical or mental disability. Some, but not all are fatal.
RADIATION. Exposure of the mother to high levels of radiation can cause small skull size (microcephaly), blindness, spina bifida, and cleft palate. How severe the defect is depends on the duration and timing of the exposure.
No.
No
A microwave may cause brain tumors, cancer, cataracts, a weakened immune system, and even birth defects.
