It is well known that among other health problems, smoking increases the risk of lung cancer, heart disease, stroke.
Findings from previous research has also linked tobacco use with infertility and earlier menopause in women.
Published in the journal, tobacco control, a new study has associated passive smoking to an 18% greater risk of infertility.
Infertility was defined by the study as trying for at least 12 months to have a baby, seeking medical advice and the male partner not being a cause.
Smoking sure has no benefit, most times I wonder why people still engage in it even passively.
