Dr. Natalie Crawford discusses the data on the impact of marijuana and tobacco use on male and female fertility. Everyone’s body is different therefore will react to their environment differently. Understanding these impacts is crucial for individuals navigating infertility or treatment, as lifestyle choices play a significant role in reproductive health.

We work so hard to get the best outcomes, so listen to this episode to learn more about how marijuana and tobacco use can impact fertility outcomes such as genetics, miscarriage, and ectopic pregnancy.
