The younger you start the worse the effects, worse smoking in young women can lead to small birth weights and complications in pregnancy. No one should smoke but young women not only harm them selves but their children.

According to one research

We do know that cigarette smoke contains compounds called aromatic amines. Certain aromatic amines are known to cause cancer.

The study also confirmed a link between a gene and how much smoking affects breast cancer risk. Smoking and secondhand smoke exposure raises breast cancer risk more in women who have a slow-acting form of the NAT2 gene. The slow-acting NAT2 gene slows the body's ability to get rid of aromatic amines. Breast cancer risk in all long-term smokers is about 20% higher than in non-smokers. This study found that breast cancer risk was 27% higher in women with the slow-acting NAT2 gene who smoked. Other research has found that risk is 35% to 50% higher in long-term smokers with the slow-acting NAT2 gene.

Smoking Causes Breast Cancer, Analysis Shows

Hello,

Smoking is not considered a major risk for breast cancer, and overall, it may present no risk at all. But some studies have suggested that smoking may increase the risk of breast cancer in certain women. A study published in the November 18, 2002, issue of the British Journal of Cancer analyzed data from 53 epidemiological studies, including 58,515 women with breast cancer and 95,067 women who did not have breast cancer. It concluded that smoking had little or no independent effect on the incidence of breast cancer. But there appear to be some exceptions:
