Cannabis & Menstrual Health: Natural Relief for Period Pain and PMS
From cramps to mood swings, the menstrual cycle can be rough. But cannabis is becoming a go-to option for many seeking natural, plant-based relief. Whether you're dealing with pain, bloating, irritability, or fatigue, certain cannabinoids and terpenes may help ease the monthly discomfort.
How Cannabis Supports Menstrual Health
The endocannabinoid system (ECS) helps regulate pain, mood, inflammation, and hormone function. Cannabis compounds like CBD and THC interact with this system to bring balance and relief.
Here’s what they can do:
- CBD reduces inflammation, eases cramps, and calms stress
- THC helps with pain relief and muscle relaxation
- CBG supports mood and may improve energy during low points
- Terpenes like linalool and myrcene promote deep relaxation and better sleep
Helpful Product Types
- Suppositories – Target cramping and pelvic discomfort
- Topicals – Rub directly on lower back or abdomen for fast-acting relief
- Tinctures or Gummies – For full-body support throughout the day
- Vapes – Quick relief for sudden pain or anxiety
For best results, try combining CBD during the day for mood and inflammation, and low-dose THC at night to ease into sleep.
