Yea this is a misleading story

This is because higher sperm count may not necessarily have anything to do with cannabis. Dr Feiby Nassan who is one of the scientists who conducted the research said,

“An equally plausible interpretation is that our findings could reflect the fact that men with higher testosterone levels are more likely to engage in risk-seeking behaviours, including smoking marijuana.”

Dr Feiby’s point of view was seconded by leading British expert, Allan Pacey who said that the high testosterone in men’s bodies could the reason why these men smoke weed.

In short, Allan Pacey meant high testosterone = risk-taking behaviours, like smoking weed.

He also noted that the paper doesn’t give any concrete reasons that marijuana could have fertility benefits and he advised couples to not follow the idea if they are looking to start a family. You heard the man! Don’t take weed if you want to start a family.

Sounds made up and it probably is. There's tons of misinformation and lies about cannabis out there.
