| Rationale: | Smoking during pregnancy is a risk factor for adverse events in pregnancy, and can be associated with low birthweight, pre-term birth, fetal growth restriction, congenital abnormalities and perinatal death.

Smoking during pregnancy is also associated with increased risk of spontaneous abortion and ectopic pregnancy. |
