Does marijuana use alter the sexual intercourse experience? 
An online survey posed questions regarding various aspects of sexual experience and how those aspects were impacted by marijuana use. The results indicated that marijuana helped individuals relax, heightened their sensitivity to touch, and increased intensity of feelings, thus enhancing their sexual experience, while others found that marijuana interfered by making them sleepy and less focused or had no effect on their sexual experience.Wiebe E, Just A.

What percentage of US medical marijuana legal states list cancer as a qualifying condition?
Cancer is listed as a qualifying condition in 100% of the US medical marijuana states. Cannabinoids have been shown to ameliorate some of the symptoms associated with cancer and the side effects associated with some cancer treatments, however, cannabinoids have not been shown to be an effective anti-cancer agent in humans in randomized controlled trials.Weiss, M. C., Hibbs, J., McHugh, T. W., Buckley, M., Larson, S., Green, N., Kaklamani, V. G., Chlebowski, R. T., & Martinez, D. (2020).

Epidemiological studies indicate that as many as 15% of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients may use cannabinoids to ameliorate some of their symptoms, including improvement in diarrhea, abdominal pain and appetite. Do the studies show that cannabinoids are effective in Crohn's disease?
Although the findings of studies examining the efficacy of cannabinoids in Crohn's disease indicate that cannabinoids do not improve inflammatory markers or endoscopic score, the results indicate that THC reduces the Crohn's disease activity index by >100 points (on a scale of 0Đ450).Naftali T, Dor M.
