Mom's Smoking in Pregnancy Tied To Girl's Puberty


This article is about women who smoke heavily during pregnancy who start menustrating months earlier than the daughters of women who didnt smoke while they were pregnant.The girls mothers who smoked at least 10 cigarettes per day doing there pregnancy .If they smoke for part of their pregnancies they began menstrauting only 3 to 4 months earlier than some of the girls whos mothers stayed smoke free.If a girl was to start menustrating early atleast a few months early they could have some effects on the population.You can gte a higher risk of health problems in life if a woman has started menustrating early.The earlier your period they have been associated with the earlier sexual activities and has had some kind of substances such as alcohol , and cigarettes.
My opinion of this article is that it gives alot of advice to women who are pregnant and they smoke while they are pregnant.You shouldnt smoke while you are pregnant because something could happen to your baby.When you go for a check up on the baby they tell you that you shouldnt smoke at all.
