While smoking is detrimental to the health of every woman, there are a number of additional health risks unique to women over forty according to American Medical Women's Association :

Menopause: On average, women smokers undergo natural menopause at a younger age than nonsmokers and may experience more pronounced menopausal symptoms.

Osteoporosis: Postmenopausal women who currently smoke have lower bone density than do non-smoking women and are at increased risk for hip fracture.

Eye Disease: Women who smoke are at elevated risks for developing cataracts.

Facial Wrinkling: The skin of smokers aged 40-49 years has been found to be as wrinkled as that of nonsmokers 20 years older.

Cancers: Smoking is the major cause of cancers of the oropharynx, and bladder, and increases your risk of kidney, liver and colorectal cancer. Smoking is consistently associated with increased risk of cervical cancer.

Lung Disease: Smoking is the primary cause of emphysema and chronic obstructive lung disease.
