I was wondering that can marijuana use lead to problems with the thyroid. Problems such as, thyroid cancer, graves disease, and hypo and hyper thyroid problems. In the last week my throat has been sore and it feels swollen and it does feel uncombfortable especially when I smoke and when a wear a tight neck t-shirt. Is this simply because i've been smoking too much or is it because there's something wrong? Thanks

No, but it tends to lead to unemployment and stupidity.

I have never read any studies such as this. I would imagine not since it has so many benefits health wise. But anything is possible.

Yes,&it can cause numerous other problems w/your health also. including your eyes.

Extensive testing on individuals who smoke marijuana has not been done. In other words, anything is possible. Until&unless the drug is legalized and has an FDA approval, it has not been determined what the consequences of its use may or may not cause.

I wouldn't think so. It shouldn't affect the thyroid any more than smoking normal cigarettes.
