How Cannabis Could Help With Period Pain and Menstrual Cramps

0

Many women that experience ongoing pain and cramps during their period may be looking for a way to ease their suffering throughout this time. Cannabis products have shown some excellent results in helping women to manage their symptoms during times of bad symptoms.

There are many medical experts that are hesitant to prescribe cannabis for treating a multiitude of common health problems. Some of the most common symptoms associated with menstruation include constipation, headaches, bloating, cramps, mood swings, tenderness of the breasts and more. Taking cannabis orally or via inhalation could help with almost every one of these symptoms. Even using a topical cannabis preparation can make sure that a woman could ease the pain associated with aches or cramps throughout her period.

As cannabis has extremely powerful benefits in pain relief and also assists with reducing inflammation, it is possible to remove many of these factors from the equation when dosing with cannabis. Removing symptoms like headaches and migraines can be easy to handle with cannabis as well. A study conducted in 2016 found that women who tried dosing with cannabis for a month managed to cut their headache total down in half. Using cannabis during menstruation could lead to a massive reduction in headache and cramping symptoms over the course of the cycle.

For women that struggle with hormonal changes during a period, CBD based cannabis products could help as well. CBD works as an anandamide reuptake inhibitor and this can improve the function of the neurotransmitters that make us feel good. For women that regularly experience mood swings and severe hormonal changes during their period, having the option to take a cannabis product can help to greatly reduce the symptoms related to menstruation.
