Say goodbye to period pains with the help of CBD
Most women suffer from the seemingly endless nightmare of period pain at some point in their lives. In fact, for most women, it’s almost a week out of every month for forty or more years. Approximately 80% of women suffer from severe pain and many of them end up using expensive, harmful and highly addictive pain medications to ease cramps and discomfort. This is obviously not a good situation for anyone, but there is another way. CBD, or Cannabidiol, is a safe and natural medicine that can help stop pain.
What is this?
Cannabidiol, commonly described using the acronym CBD, is a cannabinoid derived from the cannabis plant. Although it is from the same family as psychoactive cannabinoids like THC, CBD will not cause you to get “high” or “high” or any other term you use to describe the increased relaxation and other effects commonly associated with cannabis products. CBD is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid that acts as an anti-inflammatory and causes a reduction in discomfort and anxiety
How does it work?
CBD works mainly as a muscle relaxant and anti-inflammatory, which means it takes away the pain of the compressing muscles that make period cramps so agonizing. It also has pain-fighting properties, which means that it can combat the effects of cramps and take care of any back and chest pains you may have during the month. On a less pleasant note, CBD also works to stop muscle cramps and inflammation that can often lead to diarrhea during your period. And if that’s not enough, CBD also has positive effects on mood, making you feel less anxious and irritable.
How can I use it?
There are so many ways to use CBD to stop period pain! The most common form of CBD is CBD oil and tinctures that can be ingested, so you could start by taking some CBD oil when your period pains start to come. Alternatively, you could go straight to the heart of the problem by using a vaginal suppository infused with CBD to help the pain. If you’re looking for more relaxing options than just CBD oils, you can try a CBD-rich hemp massage oil to rub on parts of your body that feel uncomfortable.
Use CBD treatments for a natural, safe and effective cure to treat your period pains.
