Let him: See his doctor first systemic diseases like diabetes , blood pressure , hormonal deficiency, after examination will refer to a urologist , for his erectile dysfunction, drugs including 'weed ' are major contributors

I don't believe that smoking weed by itself can cause erectile dysfunction but other factors like drinking alcohol, systemic diseases, low testosterone, even stress performance can cause this problem.
