Drinking and Reproductive Health: A Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Prevention Tool Kit

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), in collaboration with CDC, has developed the “Drinking and Reproductive Health: A Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Prevention Tool Kit.” The primary component in the tool kit is a CD-ROM that aims to teach women’s health care providers how to screen and advise all of their patients of reproductive age about risky drinking and encourage the use of effective contraception among patients who continue to engage in risky drinking. It also addresses drinking during pregnancy. With information on screening, education, and counseling, this publication will help women’s health care clinicians prevent FASDs when they encounter risky drinking, regardless of pregnancy status.
