Does Smoking weed effect testosterone?

There's a sub called r leaves, posts there really show what marijuana addiction can turn into. Very bad and a real pain to kick yet so few people acknowledge any of the downsides due to the strong push for legalization. Weed is certainly a crutch and helps people avoid problems like no other, much easier just to learn to have fun without it.

That's a lot of weed to be smoking every day. No problem with a whack or two here and there as long as your job doesn't test, but that's chronic use. I'd cut back pretty hard man.

Weed itself no, only motivation, but the backwood which has nicotine in it does affect T

I know a few bodybuilders that some a ton of weed.

Granted they are probably on gear, but there isn't a direct correlation between weed and testosterone.

It does make you lazy. Use in moderation.

Affects mindset negatively imo take a break and see if ur life improves. Doesn’t affect test much though

Not a direct causation effect however yes by correlation. I was a heavy smoker and was able to get shredded and have high test 800 Ng/dl and lift 315 bench 4 plate deadlift etc but over time the weed eventually got to me. Over time it made my sleep habits way worse which fucjed up my sleep, made me unmotivated and lazy so I skipped the the gym , made me super hungry and not care what I was eating and all of these things directly affected my test levels and made them worse. Again over time is the key word. If you continue your 1 gram per day (which is a heavy addiction level) consumption level then eventually your test will get lowered and it’s going to take a long time to recover and for you to feel like yourself again. Trust me it’s one of the worst regrets of my life and I’m only 23.

if you're under 30 your test isn't affected by shit. but a gram a day, lol, i could make a gram last a week

Everything in moderation, i smoke once a month and usually with the homies, but we usually play poker and shit aswell, but if you smoked every week or more im more then sure there are negative side effects
