This type of vaping causes miscarriage

At a time when it became known that smoking poses a danger to women during pregnancy, a new study focused on some alternatives to traditional cigarettes, to show that they are not without dangers.

And scientists sent an urgent warning to pregnant women about some flavors of the electronic cigarette (vape), pointing out that it doubles the risk of miscarriage.

In a study published in the Journal of Preventive Medicine, scientists found that women who smoked e-cigarettes with mint and menthol flavors had a higher risk of losing fetuses in their wombs than others.

US researchers monitored 600 pregnant women, some of whom smoked e-cigarettes, during their pregnancies to see how nicotine affected them.

The study did not show major differences between women who smoked and those who did not smoke, but there was an increased risk when the flavors of the e-cigarettes changed.

Scientists confirmed that women who smoked e-cigarettes with mint and menthol compound flavors before or during pregnancy increased their risk of miscarriage by 227 percent, compared to the rest of the flavors.

The study did not explain the cause of the increased risk of miscarriage as a result of smoking mint and menthol compounds.

But experts, quoted by the British newspaper “The Sun”, interpreted the matter based on previous studies, which indicated that the e-cigarette flavored with menthol leads to the destruction of DNA and cell death.

Electronic cigarettes are smoking products in all respects. E-cigarettes work by vaporizing a liquid, not by burning tobacco like regular cigarettes. In most cases, the vaporizer liquid contains nicotine, in addition to other substances.

The biggest harm of electronic cigarettes is that they contain nicotine, just like regular cigarettes. Nicotine is a substance that causes addiction in every generation, but the exposure of young people to it is more dangerous because in the puberty period the brain is very sensitive and therefore nicotine can lead to addiction, to disturbances in concentration and to disturbances in mood (depression, for example). In addition to affecting the brain, nicotine affects other processes in the body such as blood pressure and heart rate. All of these can turn into long-term effects.
Electronic cigarettes contain other harmful substances, in addition to nicotine, including substances that can negatively affect the respiratory system and substances that are considered carcinogenic, that is, they have the ability to cause cancer.
It has been proven that young people who use electronic cigarettes are at a 7 times greater risk of smoking regular cigarettes in the future. Addiction to nicotine can lead to drug use in the future.
