Abstract
Fetal development is a highly intricate and dynamic process that transforms a single fertilized egg into a fully formed human being over the course of approximately 40 weeks. This comprehensive overview explores the sequential and coordinated stages of fetal growth, beginning with fertilization, continuing through embryogenesis, and culminating in parturition. The abstract elucidates critical physiological milestones, including the formation of the three germ layers, organogenesis, and the maturation of various body systems. Factors influencing normal and abnormal development, such as maternal health, genetic determinants, nutritional status, and environmental exposures, are also discussed. Advanced imaging technologies and molecular biology tools have significantly enhanced our understanding of intrauterine development, allowing clinicians to monitor fetal health and detect anomalies early in gestation. Furthermore, the interplay of hormonal regulation, placental function, and fetal circulatory adaptations is examined in detail. Understanding the nuances of fetal development is vital not only for obstetric care but also for anticipating and managing complications that can affect neonatal and long-term health outcomes. This overview serves as a foundational reference for healthcare professionals, educators, and researchers invested in maternalfetal medicine.
