These problems can affect how the body is created or the way that the body functions. These genetic problems can be mild or serious.

Birth problems can also be caused by environmental factors that affect fetal growth. Chemicals and toxins, like those found in industrial solvents (such as benzene) and trichloroethylene (used in dry cleaning, and perchloroethylene (used in the process of painting and degreasing metals) can cause birth defects. It is also possible to be exposed to lead, arsenic, mercury, or other heavy metals used in the manufacturing process or in power plants. These harmful substances are referred to as teratogens, and they can cause serious harm to a growing baby.

A medical professional may cause a birth defect due to incompetence, for example, not diagnosing or treating the mother's health condition during pregnancy or after the child is born.
