Simple: the two systems are separate but depend on each other.

- The respiratory system provides oxygen and removes carbon dioxide for all body tissues, including the reproductive organs and a developing fetus.
- During pregnancy the mother’s breathing changes (higher oxygen needs and increased ventilation) so the respiratory system works harder.
- Reproductive hormones (e.g., progesterone) can change breathing rate, and respiratory problems (like smoking or infections) can harm fertility and pregnancy outcomes.
