Smoking Leads to Impotence and Infertility, British Report Says
LONDON (Reuters) - Smoking damages almost all aspects of sexual, reproductive and child health, a hard-hitting report by the British Medical Association (BMA) said on Wednesday.
The report estimated around 120,000 men aged 30-50 were impotent because of smoking.
"The sheer scale of damage that smoking causes to reproductive and child health is shocking," said Dr Vivienne Nathanson, the BMA's Head of Science and Ethics.
