A member asked:

I am 4 months pregnant, i am working, my opposite office employees smoke from inside their office and the hallway also smell ciggarate, but in our office there is no smell, but still i am concerned , i am wearing a medical mask, will it help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I don't consider occasional exposure to second hand cigarette smoke any risk to your fetus. Mask if you wish, but the particle size in the smoke likely passes through the mask. If you can still smell it, it went through. Focus on maintaining good nutrition, sleep and avoiding exposures you can control.
