Smoking decreases your chance of pregnancy and increases the incidence of pregnancy complications such as miscarriage and premature labor, especially in women over 35 years. Smoking decreases fertility and therefore decreases chances of conceiving. It ages the body and therefore ages all organs in the body including the ovaries.

It also increases the chances of baby having birth defects.

Not to mention it's not healthy for the baby or the mother afterwards, increasing chances of respiratory illness, asthma and SIDS.

Yes. Which you should stop smoking anyway if you are trying to get pregnant it isn't good for the baby.

"PAH, a component of cigarette smoke and fossil fuel combustion, binds to what is called an Aromatic Hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) on cells in ovary structures. When PAH attaches itself, it stimulates the ovaries to shut down the maturation process of eggs, resulting in an egg trapped in a non-ovulatory follicle. In other words, smoking can interfere with and even shut down ovulation, with obvious consequences for normal functioning of the menstrual cycle. Some scientists believe this evidence explains why women who smoke experience premature menopause. ... Dioxins and PCB's and other double and multi-ring structures can also bind to this receptor and wreak havoc on reproductive systems, but they do it in a less-known and different way than PAH."

It increases the chances that the baby isn't born sick or underweight. Would you continue to smoke if the answer was no? If so, you don't deserve to have working ovaries.

Yes. I don't remember why but it is supposed to. I didn't and still got pregnant, but it is hard to quit. Why not do it before you have a little life to worry about?
