Introduction
Intrauterine fetal demise affects between 0.4-0.8% of pregnancies worldwide. This significant adverse pregnancy outcome continues to be poorly understood. In utero exposure to substances increases the risk of stillbirth to varying degrees according to the type of substance and degree of exposure. The aim of this qualitative narrative review is to investigate common biologic relationships between stillbirth and maternal substance use.
