Women who smoke have a 40% higher risk of infertility compared to women who do not smoke. This data was reported by the World Health Organization (WHO) based on a review of scientific studies on the topic.
The alert highlights that smoking can affect the ability to become pregnant in ways that go beyond the already known risks to overall health. The comparative analysis between smoking and non-smoking women revealed significant differences in terms of fertility.
The review of studies analyzed by WHO reinforces the importance of raising awareness about the effects of cigarettes on female reproduction. Tobacco consumption has demonstrated negative impacts on women's reproductive capacity.
