The Benefits of Cannabis with Premenstrual Syndrome

Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a physical and emotional disruption in the body a few days before a females menstrual cycle begins. A hormone shift causes discomfort resulting in a variety of symptoms. Many of these conditions can be reduced with cannabis use.

Cannabis use has no effect on hormone levels that cause PMS. Marijuana is a natural alternative to prescribed medications. Conditions can become more severe with menopause and Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). Many women that use marijuana for temporary relief do not use it long term.(Source)

Physical symptoms include migraines, gastrointestinal, cravings, insomnia, pain and fatigue. Emotional conditions include depression, anxiety, lack of concentration and mood swings. Marijuana has shown to have less side effects than other opiate medication in treating PMS.

Indica strains generally can help with pain management from PMS. Smoking can give immediate relief while in the edible form can be more long lasting. Many women work on finding the right combination of CBD for gastrointestinal issues and pain. We urge you to consider offering a testimonial describing how cannabis has helped you with treatment for PMS.

Testimonial - PMDD

Medical Marijuana Testimonial	Just having the ability to acquire medicinal marijuana is worth as much as the relief it brings. My main complaint is pain, and since pain equals weakness, I prefer going to a controlled environment where my meds have been tested. This way I know for a fact what it is that I'm buying, no guess work required. Better yet, there's no middle-man, no stranger on the street, and violence is virtually unheard of among regular users such as myself. Now, if we could just get them tested for pesticides, mold and fungi, AND have Medicare pay for it...
