ÖzetTütün kullanımı son zamanlara kadar bir erkek davranışı olarak algılanmış, özellikle gelişmekte olan ülkelerdeki kadınlarda tütün kullanımı çok düşük düzeyde kalmıştır. Toplumun yüklediği roller gereği kadınlar "zayıf", erkekler "güçlü" olarak algılanmıştır ve bu kadınları erkekler gibi güçlü olma arayışına itmiştir. Tütün endüstrisi bu durumu kendi lehine kullanarak cinsiyet normlarını değiştirmeye yönelik girişimlerde bulunmuştur. Sigarayı modern kadın olmanın, erkeklerle eşit olmanın, güçlü olmanın, özgürlüğün sembolü olarak göstermiştir. Kadınların tütün endüstrisinin ana hedefi haline gelmesiyle, tütün kullanım sıklığı açısından erkeklerle kadınlar arasındaki fark giderek kapanmaya başlamıştır. Sigara kadınlar için de büyük bir sağlık sorunu olmaya başlamıştır. Tütün kontrolünde, sigarayı cinsiyet eşitliğinin simgesi olarak gösteren anlayışla mücadeleye başlanmış, kadınları tütün endüstrisinin zararlarından korumak amaçlanmıştır. Bu makalede dünyada ve Türkiye'de sigara içme sıklığının cinsiyete ve yıllara göre nasıl değiştiğini, toplumsal cinsiyet ve tütün ilişkisini, sigaranın kadın sağlığı üzerine etkilerini ve kadınların tütün endüstrisinin ana hedefi haline nasıl geldiğini anlatmak amaçlanmıştır.Anahtar Kelimeler: Toplumsal cinsiyet, tütün endüstrisi, tütün kontrolü, sigara içme, sağlık Gender and tobacco control for health AbstractUntil recently tobacco use has been perceived as a male behavior and especially among women in developing countries-tobacco use has remained very low. According to the roles imposed by society, women are perceived as "weak", men are perceived as "strong" and this has led women to seek to be as strong as men. The tobacco industry has attempted to change gender norms by using this situation to its own advantage, showing the cigarette as a symbol of modern women, of being equal to men and being strong and free. As women have become the main goal of the tobacco industry, the difference between men and women in terms of the frequency of tobacco use has gradually started to close. Smoking has started to be a major health problem for women. A struggle has started on the issue of controlling tobacco use and for understanding how to protect women from the damage done by the tobacco industry, which shows smoking as a symbol of gender equality. In this article, we show how the prevalence of smoking has changed in the world and in Turkey in relation to gender and age, and examine the relationship between gender and tobacco use, the effects of smoking on women's health, and demonstrate how women have become the main target of the tobacco industry.

“…Despite this, smoking during pregnancy was reported to be 12% in England (McAndrew et al, 2012), 13% in the United States (CDC, 2019), and 15% in Australia (Scollo & Winstanley, 2012). Although there is lack of general data regarding the ratio of smoking during pregnancy in Turkey, small-scale local studies report that smoking during pregnancy ranges between 10.6% and 51.2% (Aksakal et al, 2017;Altiparmak et al, 2009;Ersoy et al, 2011;Kose, 2011;Kose et al, 2011;Marakoglu & Erdem, 2011;Marakoglu & Sezer, 2003;Mutlu & Saracoglu, 2014). However, these studies did not evaluate the use of cigarettes in pregnancy specifically.…”

“…However, these studies did not evaluate the use of cigarettes in pregnancy specifically. Retrospective findings were reported in the studies that investigated hypertension in pregnancy by Ersoy et al (2011) and assessed women's smoking prevalence in rural regions by Kose et al (2011). Kose (2011) similarly evaluated the pregnancy process retrospectively among postpartum women who had 6- to 12-month-old babies.…”

Introduction: Cigarette, one of the various forms of tobacco, is the most commonly used tobacco product in Turkey and in the world. Cigarette has several negative effects on general health and is a major problem in the pregnancy period. This study aims to identify pregnancy-related factors that affect the tendency to smoking cessation and their effect levels in pregnant women who continue to smoke during pregnancy. Method: The sample of this descriptive and cross-sectional study was 430 pregnant women who smoked. Data were collected through an original interview form and face-to-face interviews. Data analysis was performed using chi-square, independent t test, and multiple logistic regression model in terms of demographic, obstetric, maternal, and fetal features. Results: The average number of cigarettes smoked before pregnancy was 13.28 ± 8.62, whereas the average number of cigarettes smoked during pregnancy was 6.60 ± 7.64. The tendency to decrease smoking increases 2.8 times (OR = 2.825, 95% CI [1.631, 4.895]) with the number of pregnancies and approximately 2 times in case of a planned pregnancy (OR = 1.946, 95% CI [1.076, 3.520]). The frequency of having prenatal visits showed a weak but significant relationship with the number of abortuses and the number of living children. Conclusions: Developing a risk map in line with the findings of the study and considering the obstetric features of smoking women could enable to hypothesize about the types of behaviors in smoking in the following processes of pregnancy. With the precautions to be taken, the negative effects of smoking on maternal and fetal health could be prevented or minimized.
