Marijuana and low sperm count?

Question

Hello all! My husband and I are on our 3rd month of TTC and I JUST now realized that he smokes marijuana daily for his ADHD and that it could have an effect on our fertility. I’ve heard that it can cause a low sperm count by as much as a third, and I’ve also heard that it just slows the swimmers down. Have any of you conceived with a man that smoked multiple times a week? I’m trying Pre-Seed this cycle to help his swimmers so fingers crossed!!!

Answer

My hubby is the same. I'd love to hear some success stories. 🙂

Answer

Me and my kids father were pot smokers, him WAYYYYYYY more than me, smoked all day every day for many years. I conceived my son first month 12 years ago, then he still continued smoking everyday all day, and we were ready to have our second and got pregnant within 5 months! So no I don't believe pot affects fertility! People get pregnant doing cocaine and heroin so to me that's all bullshit!

Answer

I conceived my son first try with my bf who smokes weed every day. Now ttc #2 and I’m on my 5th try. I try to time sex closer to ovulation so I don’t do it too much because he’s most likely got a low sperm count

Answer

I'm so glad to hear everyone's success stories! My husband smokes too, and since we're starting to try, that was a concern of mine!
