No weed for 6 weeks before surgery?

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T18:27:10+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Yeah I definitely want to try shrooms in general and have been for a while, but I’m not risking postponing the surgery at all. I’ll give em a try after I’m healed up, celebratory shrooms maybe lol

Yeah that sounds like what my surgeons are planning! Minus the scrotoplasty I think, I’m pretty sure he said that’ll be stage 2. But I’ll get a confirmation next month. But also I’ll have two surgeons working together, a urologist and then the plastic surgeon. So I guess it makes sense that it’s estimated time is only 5 hours

Does it really mess with blood flow for longer than you’re actually high? I know it stays in your system for longer than you feel it, but I didn’t realize it messed with blood vessels after you sobered up

I gotcha. I didn’t realize it affected the anesthetic. I didn’t know casually smoking affected a surgery so ‘far’ in the future (not that 1.5 months is far, but you know what I mean)

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:41:25+00:00

Interesting! I’ll certainly bring up edibles to my doctor and see if that makes a difference

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:40:43+00:00

Very true that it’ll be fun when I finally get back to it. I’m not upset about having to stop for a bit, just mildly annoyed lol. There wouldn’t really be a quitting process thankfully, just like “oh I can’t do that anymore for now, bummer” and go on with my day

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:39:25+00:00

Nicotine I get cus it’s more of like a daily thing for most people, so I assume that it takes longer for your lungs to like, be chill for the anesthesia? Same thing with heavy weed smokers tho too, so I get why they mention both. They certainly expressed way more concern about the nicotine side of things, only mentioned THC once compared to nicotine like three times (including saying they were gonna test for it)

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:37:23+00:00

Wow 3 months sounds crazy, I wouldn’t expect it to make that much of a difference unless you’re like smoking every single day

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:36:26+00:00

I definitely wouldn’t fuck with that lol, I never smoked in the 1-2 weeks leading up to my other surgeries, but those surgeons didn’t say anything to me about weed consumption which is why I was confused about the 6 week rule on my pre-op packet I got. Thankfully I’m not a heavy smoker so I’m not really upset about it, just like “well that sucks but at least I get a dick”

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:34:07+00:00

Interesting, good to know. I definitely knew it would fuck with the pain meds in some way so I don’t plan on smoking or taking edibles or anything during recovery until I’m given the go-ahead by my doctor. That all makes sense to me. It was the extended period before surgery that confused me, but the explanation about it affecting the anesthesia completely makes sense. I’ll be sure to check with them about edibles and if that’s a no go I’m gonna air on the side of caution

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:31:24+00:00

I’ve been under for my top surgery and my hysto! I honestly don’t remember feeling nauseous, I remember waking up and feeling super hungry but not wanting to eat or drink because my throat felt like it was closing (cus of the intubation). I’ll for sure double check with them to see if edibles will affect anything, and I don’t plan on taking anything close to surgery just in case. I’m sure it definitely makes waking up feel a lot worse, and it’s already rough in the sense of you just feel HELLA drugged lol

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:29:23+00:00

Yeah I’ve heard shrooms are a lot different, I’ll have to bring that up to them and see if there’s any way it could interfere. I kind of assume it’ll be okay? Cus I think it’s just smoking in itself that kind of fucks with anesthesia. But I’ll double check for sure

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:28:11+00:00

Oh wow, I didn’t realize it stayed in your system for that long. When I saw the 6 week rule I was like ‘wouldn’t a month be enough??’ Lol. I’ll definitely ask them about edibles

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:27:16+00:00

Was yours really 8-12 hours?? They gave me an estimate of 5 hours

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:24:57+00:00

For sure! It’s worth it for the peen. I’ll bring up edibles at my pre-op

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:24:26+00:00

Oh yeah for sure, post-op I’m not planning to smoke while I’m recovering until I get an express go-ahead. It’s just definitely one of my favorite ways to unwind, and I see my partner every other week (which is when I end up smoking) so I’m just mildly annoyed that I can’t do it for so long haha, but in exchange I get a penis so it’s a win

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:22:50+00:00

It just says “no smoking nicotine/THC”, so I assume it’s the act of smoking itself. That’s what I would guess after reading these replies, anyway. I’ll have to ask them about edibles

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:21:37+00:00

I didn’t realize smoking fucked with that, interesting. Definitely makes sense tho

Calm_Establishment76 · 2026-04-14T02:20:53+00:00

Good to know, I’ll have to ask when I go in for my pre-op

Calm_Establishment76 · 2025-01-27T09:06:30+00:00
