A member asked:
Can binge drinking cause a blighted ovum in a 45 year old woman?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Unknown: A blighted ovum is usually cause by a genetic abnormality in the embryo. That can arise from the egg or the sperm, but the egg is usually the cause. The exact effect of alcohol even in large amounts at that time is not completely known. Alcohol can lead to miscarriage in large amounts, but the exact nature of the abnormal pregnancy is not well documented.

No : Binge drinking is certainly not healthy and can cause many problems but a blighted ovum is not one of them.
