The results of a retrospective analysis and a one‑stage study conducted among 352 teenage girls and 952 postmenopausal women demonstrate that pathology of the cardiovascular system (CVS) can be programmed in the antenatal period. Mass and growth indicators of the newborn are an important morphofunctional characteristic of a person and can be used not only to assess physical development throughout life, but also as a marker of risk of one or another somatic pathology. Timely identification of risk factors for adolescent health disorders and their adequate correction can significantly improve the results of cardiovascular prophylaxis. Equally important is the prevention of insufficient or excessive weight gain during fetal development, which can be achieved by prescribing vitamin‑mineral complexes to pregnant women.
