Pot and sperm count...

[OmnicronDEVIL]

So in my other thread this question never really got answered. In fact, not a single person even commented on it!

Does smoking pot decrease your sperm count??? Some people tell me yes. Some people tell me only if you smoke the seeds. Some people say its all lies spread by the government trying to keep young males from smoking weed. Well? Which is it?

No.

But doesn't it reduce the mobility of sperm cells?

Thank you.:D

...doesnt smoking tobacco decrease your sperm count? Therefore if you were smoking tobacco with cannabis, if the cannabis doesnt decrease the sperm count, the tobacco will?

The easy solution is to either eat it or use a vapouriser if that's the case.

i was watching this show about drugs and they were talking about how weed effects your immune system and sperm, and the way they described it effecting a person is it doesnt realy lower your immune system or sperm count but it just makes it lazy... i dunno if this is true or not but it makes sense to me

 

[Blowmonkey]

But doesn't it reduce the mobility of sperm cells?

Yes, that's true though..

I always thought it was a myth, but if anyone can prove it otherwise with a respectable study and not freevibe.com then paste links here!

well i think the fact that i don't jizz as much now is sufficient (it's not significant lol but after days and days of doing it you notice when things change :D)

Well in rats and primates, it decreases your testosterone, it decreases rat sperm counts and libido and in really large doses causes testicular atrophy. I'd be surprissed if it didn't effect sperm in humans.

For those that wonder where to find scientific studies here is a link to PubMed -- the best free resource for this purpose, that I am aware of:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi

It is a huge searchable database of the abstracts of basically every study since about 1970.

Here are some studies on male reproductive system and pot:

who cares, except yuppies trying to have kids?

i mean honestly, it's not like you're gonna spurt any less. the lil bastards are so small that they make up only a fraction of a percent of it anyways. the rest is just basically snot your prostate and such generate. yuck.

anyways if something decreases my sperm count, and therefore makes it less likely to have any suprise pregnancies, GREAT!

I agree, less people is a GOOD thing. I'd be suprized if my sperm wern't lazy, the rest of me is.

[gugglebum]

What does it mean if it reduces the mobility of sperm cells?

They won't swim as fast?

 

[lyXw33d]

they'll refuse to penetrate the egg or some shit
