Does Smoking Weed While Taking Clomid Cause Any Problems In Conceiving?
Hi Doctor, thanks for this opportunity, myself and my husband we have been trying to get pregnant for the last 4 months. We did some test and discovered that he has low sperm count. He was placed on clomid, but he smokes weed. Please would this affect the intake of the drug?? Thanks.

Dear Member,
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic.
spermatozoa are very sensitive to any oxidants. smoking, alcohol, tight pants, varicocele all cause the low sperm count.
I would strongly recommend that all habit forming drugs be stopped and also he should take antioxidants like lycopene, co enzyme q 10. diet should be rich in green leafy vegetables.
thanks.
