SMOKING DAMAGES WOMEN'S FERTILITY: "ONE CIGARETTE PER DAY LOWERS THE CHANCES OF BECOMING PREGNANT AND INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF MISCARRIAGE" Source: Journal of Human Reproduction Research has shown that the habit of smoking puts ten years on a woman's reproductive age. That means a smoker aged 30 faces the same problems as a non-smoker aged 40 years. It is already widely known that smoking in pregnancy can damage an unborn child but not many people realise that it also affects fertility. Around six million women in the UK smoke and the concern is that numbers are increasing, especially among younger women. One in six couples has fertility problems and 44,000 a year are seeking help including IVF treatment. The study was carried out in Holland using 8500 women from 20 years to 40 years. Around 40% were smokers, smoking at least one cigarette a day for the past year. The results showed that for the smokers, the chances of giving birth was 28% lower than among the non-smokers. The miscarriage rate for smokers was higher too - 21% compared with 16%
With regards to
male impotence, the British Medical Association says that 120,000
between the ages 30 to 50 are rendered impotent by smoking HOW CAN HYPNOTHERAPY HYPNOSIS THERAPY STOP SMOKING?

WHAT CLIENTS SAY: "It's been six months now since I stopped. I have no feelings about smoking anymore. What freaks me out is when I look back at my old self, standing outside the office on a drizzly November day, huddled together with all the other smokers! I realise now how much smoking ruled my life."
