Air pollution behind increased risk of pregnancy loss in India, South Asia


UPDATED: January 25, 2021 16:47 IST
For air pollution above WHO air quality guideline of 10 µg/m3, exposure may have contributed to 29 per cent of pregnancy losses, the study found (Representational)
Poor air quality has been linked to a considerable proportion of pregnancy loss in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, a study published in The Lancet Planetary Health journal reveals.
The study found that exposure to PM 2.5 particles that exceeded India s air quality standard of 40 µg/m3 led to an estimated 349,681 pregnancy losses per year in South Asia, which is the most populous region in the world. This accounts for 7 per cent of annual pregnancy loss in the region from 2000-2016. ....

That ‘air pollution is killing the next generation’ is no longer just a figure of speech. According to a recent study published in The Lancet Planetary Health, nearly 3.5 lakh lost pregnancies every year in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh can be attributed to poor air quality.
The researchers who conducted the study analysed how the concentration of PM2.5 particles, which are not visible to our eyes, might contribute to pregnancy loss. The WHO air quality guideline recommends a standard PM2.5 concentration of less than 10 micrograms per cubic meter (10 µg/m3). However, different countries have their own ambient standards. The US, for example, draws the line at 35 µg/m3, and India, at 40 µg/m3. ....
