    Smoking has many adverse reproductive and early childhood effects such as increased risk of infertility, preterm delivery, stillbirth, low birth weight, and sudden infant death syndrome. Smoking also causes coronary heart disease and reduces circulation by narrowing arteries, putting smokers at higher risk of peripheral vascular disease and abdominal aortic aneurysm.

    HOW SMOKING IS RELATED TO CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE

    Smoking causes coronary heart disease, the leading cause of death in the
    United States.

    Cigarette smoking causes reduced circulation by narrowing the blood


    vessels (arteries) & puts smokers at risk of developing peripheral
    vascular disease (i.e., obstruction of the large arteries in the arms and
    legs that can cause a range of problems from pain to tissue loss or
    gangrene)

    Smoking causes abdominal aortic aneurysm (i.e., a swelling or weakening


    of the main artery of the body—the aorta—where it runs through the
    abdomen).
