Will Meth Addiction Decrease The Chances For Conception?
Hi i have been smoking meth occasionaly and i can feel myself becoming addicted i keep saying after every last smoke of it that thats gonna be my last one, ive also been having unprotected sex and i was wondering if smothing meth will decrease my chances of conceiving?
I went through your details. The effects of methamphetamine use on pregnancy and the infant have been less well-studied than those of opiates, alcohol, and cocaine. But still, it can be safely assumed that as meth affects the pleasure - release path of the brain, it could easily affect the egg production cycle and egg health.
Meth contains highly toxic and destructive chemicals and other ingredients that have been shown to cause cancer and other diseases which effect neurological development. These substances are capable to destroy the eggs even. They could also affect the pregnancy period even if you are conceived. I suggest you to quit meth.
