Can Smoking Marijuana Daily Prevent Pregnency In A Person With PCOs?

Hi, I am successful in my job and home life, but am wondering if there are any subtle psychological effects of smoking marijuana daily. I have symptoms of PCOS (overweight, irregular periods) but have been managing it with dong quai, vitex, exercise, and healthy eating. I have been trying to get pregnant for 2 years now, and have started thinking that maybe the smoking is the culprit. Could it be?

hi
thanks for using healthcare magic

Marijuana could lead to complication in pregnancy like low birth weight, development delay. In females, there is evidence that cannabis use may disrupt the menstrual cycle, but it does not prevent pregnancy. In ur case it is happening due to PCOD which lead to irregular menses or other complication. So consult a gynecologist for PCOD treatment. Leave weed would definitely help u by getting regular menses, but it is not the real culprit.

thanks
