I've never heard of that making you infertile. I don't believe it. I still don't quite understand why it is illegal to be honest, how many deaths do you hear are a direct result from marijuana? Not endorsing it just making a point.

It does lower your count.And you should stop because I have a friend and his father was on drugs when he was concieved and he has anger management problems and takes medicine and is in execeptional childrens reading class.He was recently sent to a boys home because of his conduct.All this because he was a drug baby.The doctors have been testing him and the say that this is the main cause.I have another friend both his parents were on drug when he was concieved,and in his mothers stomach.She was even high a couple hours before labor.And he came into this world addicted to drugs.It was imprinted in him.And the doctors know this now and he's been fighting drugs since the day he was born, trying not to give in when the urge is so strong.And he has given in before but he has free councling at school and he seems to be okay.But .any of this could happen to your child.And if you saw these kids and what they go through you would stop.

They say it lowers sperm count but I got pregnant with no problem when my husband smoked and so did all of my friends with no problems. So I guess it could but it didnt work that way for me.
OMG I dont beleive the number of people on here who are so afraid of a little weed, Its not gonna kill you for crying out loud, it wont make you sterile, you are not a horrible person for smoking it and most of the people on here sound like hoity toity people who put thier little fingers out when drinking tea.
If it makes your girlfriend happy just quit for a while until she is pregnant.

Is your girlfriend trying to get pregnant? If so, why aren't you two married? If she can answer that question and you can answer that question without insulting each other (it's obvious to me that you DON'T want to spend the rest of your lives together and I know nothing at all about you...), then you need to stop smoking weed and so does she and both get real lives.

It could be marijuana smoking causes a depletion in sperm count. It also depeletes brain cells which are never replaced.
For the non belivers, a few quotes along with their sources just in case you have enough braincells to read and comprehend the information.:
"It has been scientifically shown that marijuana use can impair male fertility."
"Men who smoke marijuana frequently have significantly less seminal fluid, a lower total sperm count and their sperm behave abnormally, all of which may affect fertility adversely, according to a new study in reproductive physiology at the University at Buffalo. "
"Substance abuse and addictions: Your sperm count can drop by as much as 50% on account of heavy use of drugs like marijuana and cocaine. There are receptors in the sperm for certain compounds in marijuana that resemble natural substances. These substances can impair the sperm’s motility and the ability to penetrate the egg. "

It could be. My cousin and her husband smoked weed about once a day for the first 5 years they were married and they didn't get pregnant until they had both stopped entirely for 6 months. Marijuana lowers hormone levels in both sexes, decreasing the amount of eggs/semen produced.

yes weed does have some affects--you will have a lower sperm count so it is a thought. althougth i dont think its the real reason she isnt pregnant it is a factor and more importantly it is upsetting your girlfriend, so maybe you should take her interests to heart, quit smoking and go to a doctor and help find out why she cant get pregnant

YES...GET OFF THE WEED...........please..been there (ex smoked it all the time) not good for sperm count at all... you could always go to the doctors & your sperm count tested!! sorry, but i bet it wont be happy news. If you really do want a baby then you gota quit. if you dont like the thought of going to the doctors then you can buy home tests on the net....then at least you will no.. but PLEASE give it up...

I have heard also that it affects sperm count , it did take the wife and I 10 years before she got pregnant . So it must take sperm a long time to get used to being high but eventually one of them will stumble onto an egg and fertilize it .

It may be a blessing, since no child needs to be raised by someone who may smoke weed around them. Ive heard that heavy drinking can make it harder to get pregnant.
