The new study discovered a concerning link between air pollution—specifically fine particulate matter and nitrogen dioxide—and an increased risk of miscarriage among pregnant women.
Among the women studied, those who experienced miscarriages were notably more likely to have been exposed to poor air quality, highlighting a potential correlation with pollutants.
Researchers speculate that air pollution may disrupt pregnancy hormones, provoke detrimental inflammation, or negatively influence fetal development, contributing to the increased miscarriage rates.
The findings underscore the pressing need for stricter air quality regulations and greater awareness of pollution's impact on pregnant women's health.
