What Is Asperger's Syndrome?
3. Teratogens
Other causes of Asperger’s include exposure to teratogens, which are agents that cause birth defects. The exposure usually happens during the first two months of conception.
Asperger’s can also initiate later during intrauterine life, neonatal, and early childhood. Many environmental factors may also be involved, although none have been confirmed.
