How Smoking Affects Your Chances of Pregnancy

From About.com Guide to Fertility, Rachel Gurevich:
"It's no secret that smoking is detrimental to your health; so it's probably no surprise that smoking can affect your fertility. Smoking has been linked to an increased risk for many cancers, heart disease, emphysema, and a number of other health problems. The toxins contained in cigarettes take their toll not only on your lungs, but on your entire body's health, including your reproductive system."
