Got pregnant without preparation, both of you have always smoked, will there be problems?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Since tobacco contains harmful substances such as nicotine, tar, carbon monoxide, and radioactive materials, smoking during pregnancy is absolutely harmful. It affects the fetal growth and development, easily leading to adverse consequences such as miscarriage, premature birth, and stillbirth. Newborns are also weaker in constitution and have poorer intelligence compared to normal children, making them more susceptible to diseases and having a higher mortality rate. Toxic substances can also cause congenital heart disease and various birth defects in the fetus. In summary, for pregnant women, it not only affects their own health but also impacts the development of the fetus.
