    Women who are pregnant but who also have the ovarian cyst disorder polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are at higher odds of giving birth to an underweight baby, new Norwegian research shows.

    Although numerous studies have shown that marijuana use during pregnancy may harm both the fetus and a mom-to-be, almost 6% of women responding to a recent survey said they used weed while pregnant.

    That's more than one in every 20 pregnancies, noted a team from the University of Georgia (UGA). Many of the women interviewed viewed marijuana as harmless, and it's long been turned to as mea...

    Studies in mice have shown that the fungal toxin zearalenone can mimic estrogen, and it might hamper reproduction.
