Does smoking stop ovulation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can: Smoking reduces blood supply by causing constriction of small arteries, including the arteries to the ovaries, which may effect their normal function. In addition, it adds things like formaldehyde and carbon monoxide which both reduce the supply of oxygen to normal tissues. Smokers definitely may have fertility issues. Equally, smokers have more pregnancy complications and baby's health suffers.
