yes it definatly can affect a mans sperm. especially with daily use. It lowers the sperm count and if done enough it can make him sterile.

I would like the reference airenscroggins is using
As far as I am aware pot use has no side effects on a fetus this information is from the herbal PDR (physicians desk reference) it says a gram use a day has caused no noticeable lasting side effects and is not contraindicated during pregnancy

Yes can lower it
Also, our research suggests that the use of alcohol and drugs by other family members plays a strong role in whether children start using drugs. Parents, grandparents, and older brothers and sisters in the home are models for children to follow.

many studies have been done on this, and it is one of the strongest arguments against the use of marijuana. statistics show that continued use of marijuana significantly lowers a man's sperm count. my advice is that if you plan to have children, you stop smoking. not only will it increase your chances of impregnating your partner, but it is a bad habit for a father to have.

yes it can. my neighbor had a baby by aguy that smoked pot every blue moon. and she got pregnant by him. she did everything right in her pregnancy and she thought that her baby was heathy. problems began to surface about 5 months after he was born. he is now 2 years old. he will most likely never walk, never talk, never sit up straight, or ever breathe with out the help of a tube.he will always have to clean out his throat with air suction for the rest of his life. so my advise to you , is to becareful. it might not happen to you but it is a chance.

Yes it lowers your seminal fluid and makes your sperm act kinda loopy..." The sperm from marijuana smokers were moving too fast too early," said Burkman. "The timing was all wrong. These sperm will experience burnout before they reach the egg and would not be capable of fertilization." ironic.... heres the source

The chemical THC mocks the estrogen hormone in utero. Your children could have estogen dominace that can cause endometriosis in your female offspring. Also, it can be linked to homosexuality in males (not that it is bad, just that it needs to be considered).

Most research says that it lowers sperm count. It also affects your memory and you do lose brain cells. I doubt many people can afford to lose brain cells.

My husband was told he couldn't have kids due to his years of drug abuse, but by staying clean for years sperm will reproduce themselves. We now have 2 beautiful and healthy kids.
