[Clinico-teratologic counseling and the Teratology Information Service].
Medical records of 1179 pregnant women counselled at the Department of Medical Genetics Klimentska during the period 1990-1995 because of exposure to medicaments during the preconception period and in the first trimester were analyzed. Women exposed to antimicrobial agents prevailed (48 per cent). Most frequent was treatment with Doxycycline, Co-trimoxazole and Metronidazole. 23 per cent of women were exposed to sex hormones, most frequently to oral contraceptives and norethisterone. The average gestational age at exposure to antimicrobial agents was 21.5 days and 30 days at exposure to sex hormones. Specific features of clinical-teratological counselling and the role of the Czech Teratologic Information Service are described.
