English term or phrase: Foetal origins theory

Does anyone know what the Slovenian equivalent would be for the expression "foetal/fetal origins theory" or just "foetal origin"? I am having a hard time finding an answer. Thank you!

teorija fetalnega izvora

Explanation:
Če prav razumem, gre za to, da imajo po tej teoriji določene bolezni/motnje v človekovem življenju svoj izvor v fetalnem obdobju (npr. podhranjenost fetusa).
