Neural tube defect topics
Neural tube defects are birth defects related to the growth and development of the brain and spinal cord. They happen in the first month of pregnancy, often before a woman even knows that she is pregnant. The two most common neural tube defects are anencephaly and spina bifida. To reduce the risk of neural tube defects take a folic acid supplement before you get pregnant.
