Can Marijuana Chemical Be Transferred Through Intercourse?
I’m curious if THC or any of marijuanas chemicals can be transferred through oral or physical sex? I have had a lab tech explain to me that it is possible. Also an ex girlfriend years ago failed one and I never smoked around her nor did she smoke it.

Hello,
Yes, the chemical transfer is possible but the percentage of transfer through all the barriers of the body it is very less. Even though it is transferred effective dose required to give the effect of marijuana would be far less and is negligible.
But smoking in front could cause passive smoking. In fact, you can get it blood tested to find marijuana in your body which can be a study for the future generation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
