Cannabis Exposure After Pregnancy and Development of Hypertension in the nuMoM2b Heart Health Study

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to determine whether cannabis exposure after a first pregnancy is linked to the development of hypertension 2-7 years later. Their analysis of data from the nuMoM2b Heart Health Study found no significant association between cannabis use and incident hypertension, even after adjusting for nicotine exposure and other risk factors. Thus, cannabis exposure in this population of nulliparous women did not appear to contribute to the risk of developing hypertension in the specified timeframe.
