Abstract: Based on former research, this review highlights the most common complications and health risks associated with the accumulation of toxic trace elements in maternal and fetal bodies during the course of pregnancy. While non-essential trace metals, including Al (aluminium), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), arsenic (As), and lead (Pb) trigger both pregnancy and non-pregnancy situations, pregnant cases and their fetuses are obviously more susceptible to metal toxicity due to changing chemistry and metabolic activities of the body. Given the high sensitivity of pregnancy to trace-element contaminations, the pregnant women must be avoided of exposure to toxic metals at all times even at their very low concentrations. Keywords: Trace elements, pregnancy, health risks, fetus, contamination, toxicity.
