--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dothepot/message80% percent of women experience period pain at some point in their lives, and menstrual cramps are the top complaint. That's probably why we get so many questions about CBD for period cramps. In this episode, we look at how weed can help ease menstrual discomfort. We'll discuss the science behind CBD's soothing effects and its benefits as a natural alternative to traditional pain meds. If you're interested in learning more about how CBD for menstrual cramps can fit into your well-being routine, join us as we explore real stories and research that highlight its growing use and effectiveness.
“Advil helped with the cramps, but it didn't help with that still unidentifiable pain that I have in my lower back. What did help was using CBD. And that's part of the reason why I never looked back after trying it for the first time. It became a passion for me so quickly because I was in such desperate need for it.” - Kerrigan
If you enjoyed this episode, we’d recommend tuning into episode 148, 'Living with Endometriosis? Here’s Why Women Trust Cannabis to Help,’ and episode 32, ‘Blackberry Kush: Period Pain Fighter”.

Listening to stories like this, or sharing your own, helps chip away at the decades-old social perception and stigma surrounding weed and the people who consume it. Today, five states have the choice to make adult-use cannabis consumption legal, which would be an incredible step towards eradicating the stigma. We hope you enjoy this episode and feel inspired to use your voice (or your vote!) to support the future of cannabis.

Read that again. Endometriosis, a debilitating disease that so many women suffer from — one that can cause infertility, painful periods, GI issues, and countless other symptoms — is among the hardest to diagnose. It can even take undergoing a surgery to discover the source of years-long suffering. That’s why talking about Endometriosis and the unpredictable pain that comes along with it is so important. Thankfully, cannabis has proven to be an incredible tool for women who are struggling with painful Endo symptoms, and in this emotional episode, we hear from women who found that relief.

Christine’s health suffered so deeply on this medley of prescription drugs that even basic tasks like eating became too difficult for her to endure. After five years of debilitating symptoms, Christine found medical cannabis, and for the first time since her diagnosis, she began to feel better. In today’s inspiring episode, Christine shares how swapping prescription drugs for cannabis saved her life, and she encourages others to advocate for themselves on their journey to holistic healing.

Hutton and the President and Founder of "Girl, Get That Money." As a long-time consumer, Khadijah was used to buying weed from her dealer in Sugar Land, Texas—that was until Colorado legalized adult-use cannabis and Khadijah made her way to the mountains. She was shocked to discover the different cannabis strains and their array of use-cases, and she ended up learning more about weed in one dispensary visit than in 38 years of consumption. Give Khadijah’s first time story a listen.

Over the last decade, cannabis enthusiasts have begun to reclaim the term as they speak out about having happier, healthier, and more productive lives that include weed. But even as cannabis is quickly legalizing and the meaning of the word is changing, not everyone has hopped on the bandwagon quite yet. Tune in for more exploration.
