Analysis of awareness of the effects of electronic cigarettes on fertility
Abstract
Every year, more and more people start using electronic cigarettes without realizing that these devices can affect their fertility.Further clinical researches are needed to understand the long-term effects of using these devices, because their full impact on reproductive health remains unclear.This study looks at on what adult men and women know about how electronic cigarettes can influence fertility.It was in September 2024 with 500 participants, but researchers excluded 185 because they did not use e-cigarettes or had incomplete data.In the end, 173 men and 142 women were included in the study.The data was analyzed using Microsoft Excel and checked with information from Google Scholar, PubMed, and Medscape.The results revealed that 57% of respondents believe electronic cigarettes can have a harmful impact on fertility,13% were uncertain, and 30% saw no connection between vaping and reproductive health.Most participants understand that these devices can be harmful, showing that reproductive health concerns are growing.Although many studies suggest negative effects, most have been conducted on animals, so there is a need for further research on humans.Experts should inform users about how vaping can affect fertility.
