In summary: as a MFM specialist, my job is to use shared decision-making to help pregnant people make educated decisions around preventative measures & treatments. Ultimately, my priority is the pregnant person. The fetus is a passenger, impacted by maternal health & wellbeing

Thanks @westernu.bsky.social for your continued support of our research!

Western University @westernu.ca · Apr 8

A study led by #WesternU's Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry professor Dan Hardy is the first to uncover the potential of Omega-3 to counteract the effects of THC in offspring - from low birth weight to heart complications - after exposure to cannabis in utero.

Western research shows Omega-3 potential against THC - Western News

Widely available supplement, Omega-3, shows promise in protecting against negative fetal effects, including compromised heart health, due to THC exposure.
