My husband sometimes does hookah with friends and we are trying for baby now. I am worried if it can affect sperm or chances. Has anyone's doctor talked about this?
When we were trying, both me and husband cut out all smoking including hookah, our doctor strongly advised it. It can affect egg and sperm quality. I know its not easy to quit but it really helps your chances.
Yes it can. Hookah has nicotine and other harmful stuff just like cigarettes, and that can affect fertility for both partners. If you are trying to conceive its better to stop. Your doctor will say the same honestly.
Honestly yes, hookah is not the safe option people pretend it is. Smoke is smoke. If conceiving is the goal, both of you should stop. No point taking the risk for some flavoured smoke.
People think hookah is harmless because its flavoured but it really isnt, it carries smoke and nicotine. It can reduce chances of conceiving and isnt good in pregnancy at all. Best to leave it while trying yaar.
