The replenishment and updatе of information for practitioners, both primary and specialized care providers, about the impact of a woman’s perinatal history on her future health, formation pathological conditions and diseases, is necessary for the integration of modern physicians into space of individualized (personalized, precision) medicine. In recent years, on the background of a decrease in the birth rate and a negative demographic balance of Ukrainian population, the frequency of birth of newborns with deviations of physical development parameters from the boundaries of population standards has been increasing, and this is projects on reducing of children’s and adolescents’s quality of health, increasing the overall morbidity in adulthood, and reproductive function disorders, in particular, gynecological pathology, infertility, pregnancy complications. In such conditions, the importance of pregravid background for the realization of woman’s reproductive function with a positive result is updated.
The article provides up-to-date data that will help to understand the relationship between a woman’s perinatal development and the state of her reproductive system in postnatal ontogenesis, which will maximize individualization of medical observation based on the predicted risk due to the realities of intrauterine programming.
Key words: intrauterine programming, reproductive function, low birth weight, overweight at birth, gynecological pathology, pregnancy complications, perinatal risk.
