Abstract

Several studies have investigated the association of tobacco use with infertility and age at natural menopause, yet few have explored secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure with these outcomes. This study offers a comprehensive, quantified secondary data analysis of these issues using the Women's Health Initiative Observational Study (WHI OS).
