\n\nIs Gynecomastia Caused By Marijuana Inhalation?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nGynecomastia is the enlargement of male breast tissue. There has long been controversy behind the research findings concerning the effects of marijuana on male breast tissue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

However, the study did not provide conclusive evidence concerning human usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\nConsequently, there is still much unknown about the effects of Marijuana on Gynecomastia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\nHow Does Marijuana Affect Testosterone?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nThe effects of Marijuana on testosterone levels is hardly conclusive. An experiment<\/a> concerning an infusion of THC on male subjects determined that there was a 36% percent lower testosterone levels after usage. However, a separate study<\/a> concerning concentrated THC tested the substance’s effects on 17 male volunteers. The results claimed that there was seemingly no alteration in testosterone levels within the subjects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n![\"Smoking](\"https:\/\/atlantamensclinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Marijuana-Testosterone-Mens-Clinic-300x157.jpg\")

The results showed Serum testosterone concentrations decrease as age increased, increasing BMI, decreasing physical activity per week, and later time of day of blood collection. Testosterone levels were higher among current smokers, non-diabetics and NH black men.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDoes Marijuana Lower Testosterone?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nMarijuana use and its effects on the endocrine system, specifically testosterone levels, are not fully understood. Research on marijuana use and testosterone levels is conflicting. Some studies suggest that marijuana use lowers testosterone levels, while other studies find no significant effect. The long-term effects of marijuana use on testosterone levels are not clear. It is possible that marijuana could have different effects in people who are already struggling with low testosterone levels. However, it is unclear whether this lower level of testosterone is a cause or consequence of marijuana use.

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nOne study used an animal model<\/a> to determine that there was no estrogenic effect concerning marijuana. However, the study did not provide conclusive evidence concerning human usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Consequently, there is still much unknown about the effects of Marijuana on Gynecomastia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The effects of Marijuana on testosterone levels is hardly conclusive. An experiment<\/a> concerning an infusion of THC on male subjects determined that there was a 36% percent lower testosterone levels after usage. However, a separate study<\/a> concerning concentrated THC tested the substance’s effects on 17 male volunteers. The results claimed that there was seemingly no alteration in testosterone levels within the subjects.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Additionally, the largest study<\/a> to examine the relationship of marijuana use to serum testosterone levels. The results showed Serum testosterone concentrations decrease as age increased, increasing BMI, decreasing physical activity per week, and later time of day of blood collection. Testosterone levels were higher among current smokers, non-diabetics and NH black men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Marijuana use and its effects on the endocrine system, specifically testosterone levels, are not fully understood. Research on marijuana use and testosterone levels is conflicting. Some studies suggest that marijuana use lowers testosterone levels, while other studies find no significant effect. The long-term effects of marijuana use on testosterone levels are not clear. It is possible that marijuana could have different effects in people who are already struggling with low testosterone levels. However, it is unclear whether this lower level of testosterone is a cause or consequence of marijuana use. For more information on testosterone replacement therapy<\/a> or to book an appointment, please contact<\/a> our clinical staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Low testosterone is no laughing matter.
