Do you know the dangers of smoking?

Many times we all know that smoking is not good for our health, but why do so many people still like to smoke? A big part of the reason is that smoking is addictive. You think it’s okay at first, but slowly you can’t quit. So what are the dangers of smoking for women?

For women, the diseases caused by smoking are more than just this. For example, smoking can also lead to osteoporosis. Studies have shown that women who continue to smoke as adults have an average bone mass index that is 5%-10% lower than that of non-smokers. Women who smoke and take birth control pills are more likely to suffer from heart disease, and their risk of myocardial infarction is 200% higher than that of ordinary women. In addition, women who smoke for more than 20 years will increase their risk of breast cancer by 3%; for those who smoke for more than 30 years, the risk will increase by 60%. The risk of cervical cancer in women who smoke is 3.4 times higher than that in women who do not smoke.

In addition, smoking can damage genetic material and have adverse effects on women's endocrine system, fallopian tube function, placental function, immune function, fetal cardiovascular system and fetal tissue and organ development. There is ample evidence that smoking in women can reduce their chances of pregnancy and lead to placenta previa, placental abruption, fetal growth restriction, low birth weight, and sudden infant death syndrome. There is also evidence that smoking can cause ectopic pregnancy and spontaneous abortion.

In life, many women think that smoking is cool and beautiful. In fact, smoking can accelerate women’s aging, reduce the secretion of estrogen in their bodies, cause premature wrinkles on their lips and eyes, yellow teeth, rough skin, and loss of elastic and plump appearance. How can they be beautiful at all? All this is enough to show that tobacco is like a devil to women, devouring their health and beauty.

So it is not only men who are harmful when they smoke. In many cases, smoking also causes considerable harm to the body for women. So everyone must pay attention to this point. Don’t let your whole life become a mistake because of a momentary mistake. When you make a mistake, you should correct it. I hope everyone can stay healthy.
