The general objective of this study is to elucidate how studies linked to the Developmental Origins of Health and Diseases (DOHaD) relate to pregnancy, children's health, and the possibility of developing non-communicable diseases (NCDs). The research method chosen for its scope was based on bibliographic, qualitative, and descriptive research. Among the results obtained, it was possible to show that since the 1980s when the first studies within the DOHaD scope were published to the present, numerous advances have been consolidated and there is still a vast field of study to be developed. It is concluded that the external environment can affect the development of the fetus in the intrauterine environment, increasing vulnerability to the development of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in adult life, such as type II diabetes, malnutrition, and obesity, among countless other problems. that can manifest in adulthood. Therefore, it is essential that the pregnant woman has specialized care from the first months, at birth, and then as the child grows and develops.

Abstract

The general objective of this study is to elucidate how studies linked to the Developmental Origins of Health and Diseases (DOHaD) relate to pregnancy, children's health, and the possibility of developing non-communicable diseases (NCDs). The research method chosen for its scope was based on bibliographic, qualitative, and descriptive research. Among the results obtained, it was possible to show that since the 1980s when the first studies within the DOHaD scope were published to the present, numerous advances have been consolidated and there is still a vast field of study to be developed. It is concluded that the external environment can affect the development of the fetus in the intrauterine environment, increasing vulnerability to the development of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in adult life, such as type II diabetes, malnutrition, and obesity, among countless other problems. that can manifest in adulthood. Therefore, it is essential that the pregnant woman has specialized care from the first months, at birth, and then as the child grows and develops.
