| I've smoked marijuana once every weekend for the past four weeks; I've only gotten high three of those times. Initially, I smoked dank or schwag (I can't remember), and the last two of those "rides" were from hash. Anyways, after the most recent session, I've had trouble gaining and maintaining an erection. Even "morning woods" are weaker than normal. My sperm is also much stickier than usual. I've done some research, and apparently, if left untreated for a few weeks/one month, THC can permanently replace neurotransmitters, including those that regulate the parasympathetic responses (there are some others that I can't remember) for erections. In other words, if one doesn't seek help for a month after smoking marijuana, he could have permanent ED and other problems. Now, I've heard many opinions and counteropinions on the effect of marijuana on fertility, but I've found surprisingly little positive information about its effects on erections. What should I do? Am I screwed even if I quit? I am an 18 year old male. About a month or so before my first time, I tried a dangerous penis enlargement process called "jelqing." Unaware of its dangers, I had erection problems and pain in my penis for a few days; when I researched it on the Internet, I learned to "forget my penis existed" (i.e. no masturbation) for a few weeks to a month, and its function pretty much returned to normal. Could this be related to my new problem? Could it have a combined effect with my recent marijuana use? If it is unrelated, how does this explain my unusually sticky sperm? Like I've said, I've been to many "marijuana myth" debunking sites and none of them addressed the issue of erectile dysfunction, only sperm motility, etc. I know this site is pro-marijuana, but I really need unbiased, apolitical opinions on my newfound problem; I am really scared and don't want to be permanently sexually impaired. Additionally, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to hear what you have to say on pot's effects on the reproductive system as a whole, either. I've also heard that THC can permanently replace other neurotransmitters relating to depression, anger, irritability, learning/information retention, attention span, etc. Thoughts regarding these claims would be helpful as well. Any help on this matter is extremely appreciated. Thanks for your time, guys! |

By the way I don't know if the "jelging" could cause it or not. I never had the need to use it. You need a DOCTOR not a MJ forum.PS I thought I would give you an answer. I don't think any of the other guys wanted their name under the heading "Erectile Dysfunction" ![]() | |

My take is that you are worrying far too much about your penis, your erections, and your sperm. Relax. I've been smoking for 39 years and never had a problem in that area. I'll have to ask my daughter if it made me infertile. ![]()

| Here is what I found: Case Study - Marijuana for impotence, ejaculation dysfunction and no sexual orgasm. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reader:01/05/2002> I am an 18 year old female who has a problem. Recently, (in the past month) my boyfriend, also 18, has not been able to have sex. We have always had a fullfilling sexlife, but recently, he was unable to get an erection. This upset him, and since then, when ever we try to have sex, he goes limp. This is very strange because he gets great erections during oral sex, just not during intercourse. What could be causing this? How can he get help? He also smoked a lot of pot in his younger years (for about 3 years). Can marijuana have any long lasting side effects on erections? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Lin: 01/06/2002> Yes! The neurotransmitter acetylcholine in his brain and nervous systems has been gradually taken over by marijuana chemicals. The brain's acetylcholine and parasympathetic nervous functions are responsible for sustaining erection during sex. When the marijuana's chemicals replaces acetylcholine in the nervous synapses, his brain and autonomonic nervous functions become disordered - no erection (parasympathetic 2nd neurotransmitter Nitric Oxide and dilator cGMP; sympathetic beta-receptors) and no orgasm (sympathetic) Once the marijuana's chemicals take over the interneurons or synapses, it is very difficult to kick it out of the brain and nervous systems. It will take 3-7 days for our ViaPal-hGH and Heat Tea formulas to correct the brain's and nervous functions for patients with any legal medication drugs, such as blood-pressure, heart, cholesterol, diabetes, birth control, and SSRIs antidepression drugs. Our formulas are effective in dealing with the side effects of the FDA medication drugs on health and sexual functions. However, it will take 2 or 3 months for our formulas to cleanse the liver and interneurons/synapses for the patients with street drugs such as heroin, marijuana, estacy, and so on. He needs our high-power ViaPal-hGH-E (3-011) or ViaPal-hGH-P (3-010) to help him deal with the side effects of the street drugs on his health and sexual functions. Otherwise, he will become fully impotent in few months. That is, when the parasympathetic nervous function to the penis is shut down by the brain due to the deficiency of neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the nervous synapses and interneurons , his penis will be dead forever. You cannot reach orgasm either due to the acetylcholine deficiency in the sympathetic ganglions and adrenal medulla, where acetylcholine helps link the sympathetic nervous functions for the release of norepinephrine and epinephrine that triggers orgasmic contraction in the pelvic contractive fibers. His seminal production and testicular functions will also be gradually shut down. Then, his ejaculation becomes less and less, and finally dried up. He will become fully impotent and ejaculate nothing. At that point, it will be too late for him to revive his sexual life.

I know it seems like the guy is just trying to sell his medicine, but his advice on how to heal my penis post-jelqing worked and I've found other sources on the Internet that say the same thing! Is any of this true? |

| Let me start off by saying that I love smoking good weed and I used to be a serious head for over 5 years without any side effects other than a great sex life and a lot of story ideas that sounded great that night but made no goddamn sense whatsoever the next day. For the last couple of years I slowed down a bit- between work and martial arts I cut my smoking down to one or two times a month and I was just fine with that. My girlfriend smokes about the same amount as I do and I found that, because we were a couple of lightweights, more than once we'd find our stash of killer bud had dried up and gone stale. That didn't stop us from smoking it though. It happened twice- the effect of smoking this schwag was absolutely numbing. Maybe it was psychological, I dunno- but I found myself unable to feel the "ol Johnson" while we were having sex and this was followed up by a loss of erection. Since it was such a rare thing, I didn't worry about it- after all, the usual result of our getting high was a night full of great sex, so forget about it! What happened next though, about three months ago, has fucked me up big time. That night the girlfriend came home with the leftovers of a roach from some party she had been to. It was pretty nasty, the remainders of some pot that a bunch of strangers had been slobbering on all night, but our supplier had skipped town and we hadn't had any in a while so I figured, "What the hell". It was the shittiest high I had ever had and the erection I had had that night quickly disappeared. The problem, however, did not. To this day I am still having problems with my erections. I used to wake up every morning with enough wood in my pajamas to start a picnic table factory- no more. My girlfriend and I have gone from having sex two to three (sometimes up to five) times a day, to having sex twice a week. I used to get a rock in my pants big enough to stone half the whores in the Old Testament. Now I still get erections, but they aren't as powerful as they used to be and they run the risk of disappearing any time the sex involves positions that do not have enough friction going on. I've started exercising more and eating better and that has minimally helped. I haven't tried smoking any killa weed to see if that works, but I think I will try it in the future when I'm a little less apprehensive. That's my story and it's the truth. I know there are a lot of propagandists out there trying to justify marijuana's illegalization and some of y'all will just see this post as fuel for the enemy, but I don't wish my problem on any one. I have no doubt that schwag marijuana is a culrprit here, but I don't think it's the only one- obviously I smoked a lot of schwag as a younger man and I never had this problem (I'm 28 now). I can't find any information on it so I think it's rare. The only thing that came close to describing it was "Dr." Lin's website and, well, it's pretty hard to tell what the fuck the guy is talking about half the time and the other half he's trying to hawk his products so no help there. I'm putting this post out to let ya know that someone else has had the same problem this guy had, to ask that anyone else out there that had this problem (and hopefully got through it) will come forward, and to warn all the guys out there to be careful: at the very least stay away from the schwag- only smoke the quality stuff! |
