Cannabis to treat menopause symptoms
I am 55 years old, and I’ve been going through menopause for the last various years! The experience has not been pleasant, i’ve suffered a variety of symptoms, including hot flashes, insomnia, weight gain, moodiness and even pain. I am unwilling to take medication that might result in long-term side effects. I savor a more natural and safe alternative, a little research revealed that cannabis can help treat the symptoms of menopause, however using cannabis during menopause helps out the body’s endocannabinoid system, which is struggling to function separate from high levels of estrogen. I knew the best arena to start was at the local cannabis dispensary. Although medicinal and recreational cannabis is undoubtedly legal in our state, I was a bit reluctant to visit the dispensary. There is unquestionably still a stigma involved with cannabis consumption, but since I was frustrated with the lack of sleep and constant hot flashes, I stepped inside and approached the nearest budtender. I explained our situation and asked for recommendations! She explained that anandamide is a natural cannabinoid in the body that regulates body temperature. Anandamide is chemically similar to THC, which can have a cooling effect and lower body temperature. She recommended that I try an Indica-dominant hybrid called strawberry Banana. This strain offers a high THC and low CBD satisfied, so finding the right dose is fairly simple. Too much THC can legitimately increase body temperature. The right balance offers a cooling effect. The budtender told me to experiment by taking a single hit at a time. She said that I’d recognize the effects suddenly and be able to determine whether I need more. Along with helping with hot flashes, strawberry Banana is known for causing a peaceful, ecstatic sensation as well as increasing awareness and creativity.
