Psychosocial and contextual factors may influence gestational alcohol intake and women\u2019s risk perception. This systematic review aimed to assess pregnant women\u2019s and women of childbearing age\u2019s perceived risk of alcohol use during pregnancy and to evaluate their knowledge of its potential effects on children. Methods: Following the PRISMA guidelines, a systematic search was conducted in Web of Science, PubMed and PsycArticles databases for studies published up to May 2025. Eligible studies examined gestational alcohol use, risk perception, or knowledge of fetal consequences among pregnant women or women of reproductive age. Methodological quality was assessed with the Critical Appraisal of Qualitative Studies tool from the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (CEBM). Results: Twenty-nine studies were included. Reported prevalence of alcohol consumption during pregnancy varied considerably across settings. A substantial proportion of women perceived alcohol use during pregnancy as acceptable, often depending on quantity, frequency, type of beverage, or stage of gestation. Knowledge of FASDs was generally limited and frequently restricted to physical malformations. Misconceptions were more common among women with prior alcohol use. The findings highlight persistent gaps in risk perception and knowledge about FASDs. Conclusions: Prevention strategies should not be limited to pregnant women but should also target women of childbearing age, especially those with active drinking patterns, as well as their immediate sociocultural environment. Strengthening professional training, community-based interventions, and consistent public health messaging are essential to reduce gestational alcohol exposure.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm14197047","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,6]],"date-time":"2025-10-06T15:05:06Z","timestamp":1759763106000},"page":"7047","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Knowledge Gaps Regarding Alcohol Consumption During Pregnancy and Its Effect on the Fetus: A Systematic Review Focused on Women"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Mar\u00eda","family":"Botella-L\u00f3pez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Basic Psychology, Faculty of Psychology, University of Valencia, 46010 Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4492-2184","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mar\u00eda-Teresa","family":"Cort\u00e9s-Tom\u00e1s","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Basic Psychology, Faculty of Psychology, University of Valencia, 46010 Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"515","article-title":"Fetal Alcohol Syndrome and Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders","volume":"96","author":"Denny","year":"2017","journal-title":"Am.
