| Sounds like the antis "pot makes men grow breasts" myth. The person you know doesnt know **** about drugs,it seems the only thing she seems to know well are the myths surrounding it.

| Yea thats wack. All of a suden marijuana is magical and is able to decipher that person A is male and is going to decide its going to rob him of his testostarone, and give him more estragine. And if person B is female then it will do the oposite. Thats lame just think about that. Its accually laughable. psychological |

| Even the effects on sperm count and impotence is bs, all the studies they done has a ton of if's and may's, which isnt really much of a study at all. |

| Weed does make your hair grow faster, when my friends mom went out of town for a month i would go there and smoke almost every day and my facial hair grew from peach fuzz to a thick panama kinda of beard, even some of my lady friends said my beard grew very thick in very short time. i used to shave like once every week, now i have to do it almost everyday. And my hair grew a lot faster too. I've heard about the hormone thing too, and i dont know if it was a placebo or what, but testoterone is what make muscles grows, and if the hormone thing was true, pot would work like a natural steroid. After i read that i noticed that i did indeed gain a lot of muscles in my arms and chest. but i dont know, its like i said it could just be my mind

| marijuana does bring your testosterone level down and as a reflection of that your sperm count lowers too, but it is an insignificant enough to not make any damages to your hormonal normal rate and it does not bring your estrogen or progesterone up (that's a mith)... on the other hand, the low rate of testosterone is what makes you be less agressive for like a week after you smoke... in conclusion, there are hormonal changes, but nothing that can mix up your body |

| ive herd this lie too. i herd that is you are a teen 13-18 you are 6 times as likely for reduced sperm count then teens who dont. but if the chance for a "normal" teen is say 0.000000001 and your 6 times as likely to get lower sperm count is you smoke pot then my chance is 0.000000006 then i dont really care |

| I think that comes from the fact that you are less likely to get angry or in fights when high. |
