Résumé :

[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS hR0xHnwt. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The relationship between smoking cessation or reduction and attempt to conceive was studied in 646 women treated for ectopic pregnancy (EP) (Auvergne register of EP, France). Women were prospectively followed. Tobacco consumption was recorded as the mean number of cigarettes smoked per day at the time of interview. Smoking reduction was defined as stopping smoking or decreasing tobacco consumption by at least 3 cigarettes per day. Statistical analysis was performed using conditional logistic regression. The results confirmed that women reduced tobacco consumption when they became pregnant. However, no association was found between smoking reduction and attempting to conceive again. These results suggest that both women and physicians need to be informed about the possible tobacco consumption effects of smoking on fertility.
