Marijuana use may increase the risk of developing testicular cancer, in particular a more aggressive form of the disease, according to a U.S. study published on Monday.

 

The study of 369 Seattle-area men ages 18 to 44 with testicular cancer and 979 men in the same age bracket without the disease found that current marijuana users were 70 percent more likely to develop it compared to nonusers.

 

The researchers said they were not sure what it was about marijuana that may raise the risk. Chronic marijuana use also can have effects on the male reproductive system including decreased sperm quality, they said.

The munchies.:lol:

Maybe Michael Phelps and Lance Armstrong have more in common than we thought.

Find a man 18 to 44 who hasnt used marijuana. When I was in college, you couldnt turn around without someone sticking a joint in your face!(Although Im to old for the study)

I've had plenty of joints stuck in my face but for some reason I have never tried it. Not sure why :lol:

Ironically enough, the world's greatest swimmer is managing to reduce his own personal team of swimmers.

I still can't think of why we outlaw it. Why not legalize it, tax it, and make money instead of spending money catching those who are smoking it, and selling it?

 

It's not any more dangerous than Alcohol IMO.

Duuuuuuuuuuuuude, he said testicular.

I've had plenty of joints stuck in my face but for some reason I have never tried it. Not sure why :lol:

 

You've got a good 20 years to go too.

Never had one. I'm 45.

 

43 and never had one either.

I believe the study is accurate; however, 379 people with testicular cancer doesn't exactly provide overwhelming scientific evidence.

 

But, smoking in general has been linked with cancer. It's only natural that smoking marijuana would have similar side effects. This can't exactly be groundbreaking news.

 

Now who took my Dorito's :idunno:
