Hello folks,

Can I pick someone's brains on the subject of the possible interaction of HRT and Mary Jane's herbal remedy? (I don't have anything in need of remediation, but it's always better to be sure;) )

I've been a chronic user since 1977, but right now I'm at a sort of fulcrum point in life. Due to this dreadful virus, and other factors, it could be a good time to give the stuff away.

Please, no general lectures on the evils of the weed. I think I've heard it all before. However, no body ever has mentioned any connections between THC and testosterone, and if there's info of course I want to know.

Thanks,

Billy.

Sorry again Valery,

Sometimes I think I'm just too smart for my own good. I was using the slang of my youth. Any reference to Mary Jane used to simply mean smoking marijuana.

I Tell you true, when I saw the jar of Mary Jane's herbal remedy I nearly fell off my chair, it was so funny to me. But thank you for your lightning ability to find so much info on the web. I guess you're a researcher for some organisation or other, or you should be. You have a magical talent there, and seem to be able to put your finger on just the right stuff.

Surely this tool helps someone (I don't know in what case). I learned about him only today from you. Therefore, I inquired on the Internet and saved the links.

Marijuana is rumored to be legal in some countries. And it is allowed for medical use. I heard about this from a doctor I knew for a long time.

(Sorry, my computer freezes). I am not worthy of your praise ...

Surely this medicine helps someone (I do not know in which case, I have never used it myself). I learned about such a remedy only today from you. This is the only reason I have asked on the internet and kept the links.

I heard from a doctor I know that in some countries, marijuana is quite legal when used for medical purposes.

Go on, lose the false modesty Valery. You're good at this.

Yeah, there are huge claims made for the stuff. I suspect a lot is just hype. Then again there are people with severe illnesses and conditions who seem to benefit greatly too. The water is very muddy, and just how good or bad these 'medications' are is still to be figured out properly.

As is so often the case, there are proper health workers advocating, then there are the unconscious charlatans who believe what they say but it's false, and then there are the all out rip off merchants who don't care if you live or die, so long as they get your money first. The combination produces a lot of confusion, a lot of false hope, and huge disappointments. But then there are the miracle stories out there too.

Anyway, So far nothing I can find would indicate that consuming marijuana and using HRT would conflict. So that's good.

Thanks.

Hi Billy,

I do not know much about the subject, but my web search yielded the following results. Studies conducted in the US and Denmark indicated raised levels of serum testosterone in subjects that had recently used marijuana.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28395129/

I didn’t read enough of the study to know why that was the case. It seems that the scientific community believes that there could be some sort of causal relationship between marijuana and hormones. If you are planning on using marijuana while undergoing HRT, it could be worthwhile to research further or ask a healthcare professional that you trust.

Hi Billy,

I found this article as well:

https://www.saragottfriedmd.com/top-10- ... marijuana/

It discusses marijuana’s effects on several different hormones.

If you are not interested in the history of marijuana and it’s effects on the brain, you can skip to the section titled “your hormones on cannabis.”

Thanks for the links, Dagrynne.

I'll follow them in the morning ,when I'm a bit more awakw.

I'm afraid I probably won't be of much help since I'm not too familiar with any connections between weed and hormones. However, I did notice that you specifically asked about interactions with HRT, so I did want to point out that any interactions with HRT could be different from those with the body's own endogenous hormone production. The latter is probably what any studies on this topic would look at.

For instance, it could be that weed raises natural T levels, but with exogenous HRT you are putting a fixed amount in your body either way.

But other interactions (such as if it turns out that weed increases aromatase and therefore causes more T to convert to E) could apply to both HRT and one's own hormone production.

As far as weed in general goes, I've partaken a few times but find that it is not my favorite. I wouldn't say that it makes me anxious or paranoid as others have said, but it does stimulate mental activity, and that can become a bit overwhelming at times. CBD, on the other hand, gives me all the good stuff without the unwanted effects.
