Cannabis consumption in pregnancy is associated with restrictions in growth of the fetus, miscarriage, and cognitive deficits in offspring.
Cognitive performance and psychiatric conditions
Although it is difficult to draw firm conclusions, there is some evidence that prenatal exposure to certain substances, especially marijuana and cocaine, are associated with "deficits in language, attention, areas of cognitive performance, and delinquent behavior in adolescence". Cannabis use during the prenatal developmental phase is a factor in disruption in gene regulation, making offspring potentially vulnerable to addiction and psychiatric conditions, but a "lack of molecular investigations in the human brain as well as the limited knowledge regarding their long-term impact significantly hinders insights about the neurobiology underlying risk for psychiatric disorders".
A 2011 review of rodent studies by Campolongo et al found:
There is increasing evidence from animal studies showing that cannabinoid drugs ... induce enduring neurobehavioral abnormalities in the exposed offspring ... clinical studies report hyperactivity, cognitive impairments and altered emotionality in humans exposed in utero to cannabis. ... Conversely, although animal models allow to control for several confounding factors associated with human studies, they do not take into account environmental and social factors that could influence the long-term neurobehavioral effects of maternal cannabis exposure.
Endocannabinoid system
A role in female fertility has long been suspected and studied. Most studies through 2013 linking development of the fetus and cannabis show effects of consumption during the gestational period, but problems in the endocannabinoid system (ECS) during the phase of placental development are also linked with problems in pregnancy. According to Sun and Dey (2012), endocanniboid signaling plays a role in "female reproductive events, including preimplantation embryo development, oviductal embryo transport, embryo implantation, placentation, and parturition". Karusu et al (2011) said that a "clear correlation ... in the actual reproductive tissues of miscarrying versus healthy women has yet to be established. However, the adverse effects of marijuana smoke and THC on reproductive functions point to processes that are modulated by ECS."
Keimpema and colleagues (2011) said, "Prenatal cannabis exposure can lead to growth defects during formation of the nervous system"; "annabis impacts the formation and functions of neuronal circuitries by targeting cannabinoid receptors ... By indiscriminately prolonging the "switched-on" period of cannabinoid receptors, cannabis can hijack endocannabinoid signals to evoke molecular rearrangements, leading to the erroneous wiring of neuronal networks". A report prepared for the Australian National Council on Drugs concluded cannabis and other cannabinoids are contraindicated in pregnancy as they may interact with the endocannabinoid system.
