Smoking Ladies

Ladies are more vulnerable to smoking side effects than gents. These smoking ladies are likely to start smoking at the tender age of 13 or 14, with young girls experimenting with smoking more than young gents of the same age. Between the ages of 15 - 17, the numbers of female smokers is greater than the number of male smokers for the same age group and only between the 18 - 19 age group, do the number of male smokers surpass female smokers.

Effect of Smoking on Females

Females have more effects due to smoking than males. Females can suffer from childlessness due to smoking. A recent study demonstrated that female smokers have double chances of childlessness than non-smoking females. Smoking decreases the number of oocytes (eggs) in female reproductive internal organ. An experiment was done on animals, which showed that nicotine was the main cause of decrease in oocytes.

Smoking females witness abnormal functioning of fallopian tubes, which carry eggs from ovary to the uterus. Smoking disturbs the physiological levels of reproductive hormones, increases the pelvic inflammatory disease and reduces embryo implantation. Babies born to smoking females develop ectopia problems. The rate of respiratory diseases increases in babies of females, who smoke. Sudden death of babies after the delivery is mostly a scenario with the smoking females.

Heart disease is the most common cause of death among ladies. Smoking is the main cause of the heart diseases. Heart diseases take more lives of women every year than all other types of cancer combined. Smoking increases the blood pressure, which causes strokes. Every year in the United States, about 160,000 deaths are due to strokes and out of them 100,000 were females. Strokes not only lead to death, but may also make the person permanently disabled. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is another disorder seen in smoking females.

Studies indicate that women are more susceptible to the harmful effects of smoking than males. This studies report that respiratory disorders, deteriorating health, reproductive disorders and lung diseases are more in smoking females, than smoking males. The female teenager of a smoking parent has a higher chance to develop asthma, bronchial diseases at the early age of 18. Globally, cigarette smoking is the main cause of respiratory diseases, reduced lung function and lower grade of Self-Rated Health (SRH). Female smokers have larger reduction in expiratory lung function, than male smokers.

Another disease caused by smoking is diabetes. Around 18 million people suffer from diabetes of which 37,000 deaths a year were female. Many females develop diabetes due to excessive smoking habits.

To avoid diabetes, smoking females should avoid smoking, conduct regular tests of sugar levels and by maintaining a controlled and healthy diet.

A recent medical study reported that smoking is the main cause of acne in humans, especially females. Smoking causes a particular type of acne known as Non-Inflammatory Acne (NIA). Large blackheads and blocked pores are the characteristics of NIA.

Researchers studied 100 females of ages 25 to 40 and reported that 46% of smokers had acne. Teen smokers have a greater chance of skin disorders.
