Associations between adult and childhood secondhand smoke exposures and fecundity and fetal loss among women who visited a cancer hospital

Abstract: BACKGROUND-A large percentage of the population continues to be exposed to secondhand smoke (SHS). Although studies have consistently linked active smoking to various pregnancy outcomes, results from the few studies examining SHS exposure and pregnancy difficulties have been inconsistent.

“…One study did show significance for any fetal loss using quantified, lifetime SHS exposure including childhood. This study also showed significance in dose-response trend 22. For tubal ectopic pregnancy, three studies showed strong associations for active maternal smoking during pregnancy, but no effect from SHS.…”

“…The results were adjusted for the potential confounders described previously and footnoted in tables 2–5. All variables considered for the models were chosen based on a review of the literature 14 15 22. Only participants with complete data on exposure, potential confounders and outcomes were included in multivariate regression models.…”

“…Secondhand smoking has been associated with difficulty becoming pregnant, delayed conception, increased pregnancy losses, increased risk of preterm labor, and increased incidence of chromosomal abnormalities and congenital malformations (12131719). The influence of secondhand smoking, compared to direct smoking, on natural or IVF pregnancy have not been studied in depth, and needs further investigation.…”

“…However, the prevalence of secondhand smoking was not reported among the infertile Korean women. Secondhand smoking has been associated with greater difficulty becoming pregnant and delayed conception in several studies (111213). Moreover, epidemiologic studies investigating smoking-associated personal factors in infertile Korean women are not currently available.…”
