Father's smoking prior to conception could increase asthma risk for baby
European Lung Foundation News, 09/09/2014 
           
The research, presented at the European Respiratory Society (ERS) International Congress in Munich, is the first study in humans to analyse the link between a father's smoking habits before conception and a child's asthma. The findings add to growing evidence from animal studies which suggest that the father's exposures before parenthood can harm his child. The study analysed the smoking habits of over 13,000 men and women via a questionnaire. The researchers analysed the link in both mothers and fathers and looked at the number of years a person had smoked prior to conception, the incidence of asthma in children and whether the parent had quit before the baby was conceived. The results showed that non–allergic asthma (without hayfever) was significantly more common in children with a father who smoked prior to conception. This risk of asthma increased if a father smoked before the age of 15 and this risk grew the longer the duration of smoking. The researchers observed no link between the mother's smoking prior to conception and a child's asthma.
