How does cannabis use affect sexual stamina?

Effect of cannabis on the best piece of man

In recent years, laws related to the use of cannabis have been relaxed in many countries around the world. As a result, more and more people come in contact with the substance. Researchers now looked at how cannabis use affects men's sexual organs and their sexual performance.

Researchers at the University of Wollongong, Australia, have found in their recent research that cannabis use not only affects the brain, it also affects men's reproductive organs and sexual stamina. The physicians published the results of their study in the English-language journal "Journal of Sexual Medicine".

Cannabis is one of the most abused substances

Millions of adolescents and adults are taking cannabis every day. This makes the plant one of the most commonly used intoxicants in the world. When people smoke cannabis, it causes the active chemical tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) to enter the body.

Sexual stamina improves with cannabis use?

THC affects not only the brain of the consumer, but also the genital organ of male users. Many people who smoke cannabis daily have difficulty with their sexual life. These often affect sexual stamina in men, explain the scientists. However, users themselves often said that they experience a longer erection by consuming cannabis.

Consumers suffer from consumed perception

This effect has been explained by some experts as saying that consumers of cannabis usually suffer from a perceptible perception of time. This can lead to the affected person thinking that they have an increased sexual stamina, which is not really present, say the doctors.

Act under the influence of cannabis is usually shorter

The researchers suspect that this may be the reason why some users of cannabis assume they can be sexually active all night after first smoking cannabis. In reality, the duration of lovemaking under the influence of cannabis is shorter compared to the length of time people without cannabis use spend in the act, the researchers explain.

Use of cannabis can damage the erection

A group of biologists found out in another study that cannabis use can actually harm men's erections rather than improving sexual stamina. The scientists advise the consumers of cannabis therefore to renounce to protect their own health and performance in lovemaking on the consumption. (As)
