Additionally, findings from other studies reveal that pregnant women who consume marijuana are at a higher risk of experiencing complications that may lead to preterm birth. These insights underscore the need for continued research into the effects of both cannabis and environmental factors, such as wildfire smoke, on fetal health and maternal well-being.
