Cannabis and Menstrual Cramp Relief

For many women, menstrual cramps can be debilitating. Cannabis, especially in the form of THC and CBD, has been used to relieve period pain by relaxing muscles and modulating pain perception. THC has analgesic and muscle-relaxing properties, while CBD helps reduce inflammation and discomfort. Topical applications, edibles, and tinctures are popular among users seeking relief during their menstrual cycle. Emerging studies and anecdotal evidence suggest cannabis may be a promising natural alternative to traditional pain relievers like ibuprofen. It’s important to monitor dosage and choose strains that do not induce fatigue.
