Due to its anti-inflammatory effect, CBD also appears to improve digestion and helps reduce inflammation and nausea . This is why many women have started taking it to reduce cramps and bloating during menstruation.

And best of all, before menstruation, marijuana can also help us prevent these symptoms if we take a few drops of CBD every day during the premenstrual week.

anti-inflammatory

CBD has great anti-inflammatory power , it is not only effective with menstrual pain , but also with other discomforts such as headaches, muscle aches and even chronic pain.

Pain relief

Although prostaglandins and other inflammatory molecules can make pain-sensing nerves more sensitive during menstruation, cannabis components like CBD reduce the sensitivity of these nerves.

Muscle relaxation

On the other hand, the discomfort that some women feel during menstruation is due to muscle contractions of the tissue that lines the uterus. The CBD in marijuana helps relax these smooth muscles, reducing spasms.

For all this, it is perfect to help you relieve the symptoms of the premenstrual week and during menstruation.
