Maternal adverse childhood experiences impact fetal adrenal volume in a sex-specific manner
Highlights Three-dimensional ultrasound serves as a non-invasive way to measure fetal adrenal volume as a proxy for development of the fetal hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. Weight-adjusted fetal adrenal volume (waFAV) differed between subgroups based on offspring sex and the mother’s history of...
