How long does it take to quit smoking to get pregnant?

Patient's question:

Smoked for a long time

Doctor's answer:

Analysis of the condition: Men who smoke more than 10 cigarettes per day experience a significant decline in the motility of their sperm. As the amount of smoking increases, the abnormal rate of sperm also shows a significant upward trend, causing changes in the morphology and activity of sperm, and even killing sperm. This can affect fertility and embryonic development. It often leads to intrauterine growth restriction, premature birth, fetal distress, and an increased incidence of children with intellectual disabilities.
Advice: Generally, it takes about 80 days for male primordial germ cells to develop into mature sperm. Couples planning to have children should abstain from smoking during this period. Wish you good luck!
