What are the long term effects to foetus and child if a woman took illegal drugs for years prior to pregnancy?

So, the drugs I'm talking about are recreational/party drugs including everything from ecstasy, cocaine, PSP, marijuana of all sorts of strengths, hallucinogens, mushrooms. You name it. If a woman does not take them during or leading up to pregnancy but had been taking them for some ten years plus regularly prior to pregnancy, what are the effects on her fertility and, significantly, the health and expected health of her child once born? Thanks.What are the long term effects to foetus and child if a woman took illegal drugs for years prior to pregnancy?If the drugs aren't in her bloodstream prior to conception then I doubt there would be any effect on the foetus, lots of women take drugs and get pregnant without realising even and their babies are fine.



You really need to check with a medical practitioner to be on the safe side. I never heard that taking drugs affects fertility but again I am not an expert on these matters.
