Many ways: Cold turkey can work, as well as acupuncture and hypnosis, at least short-term. Nicotine replacement with patches, gum, nasal sprays etc. Is very effective, as are the antidepressant bupropion and the newest med Chantix - both of these are prescription drugs. Talk to your doctor. Group and individual support are important in staying quit. Your girlfriend needs to see her gyn provider about it.

Your issue: There are many options to help with smoking cessation to include medications such as Zyban, Chantix, nicotine gum & patches. Acupuncture & hypnosis are helpful. Being part of an organized program uses a variety of approaches. Check out: https://smokefree.gov/. Brown blood is usually older blood being cleaned from the uterus.
