Killer Cramps

[Irishgreen]

I have my card for pain, but also notice I benefit with my Asthma from MM..........

 

I was just wondering if anyone has any idea on which method of usage would help best for menstrual cramps?

 

Ya know.......the kind that knock your breath out? You can't tell if it's your uterus or back pain, because EVERYTHING if the vicinity feels like it's on fire?

 

I could go on.........but, for the sake of the men around here......I won't. LOL

 

Just wondering what would help the best?

 

I have oil caps, tincture, topical oil, and bud.

 

I'm thinking ALL of it!

 

 

 

HELP!!!!! LOLOL

[herb green]

Ive heard the very popular 'kali mist' sativa strain is good for menstrual cramps

 

Just read discripton of the strain the other day

 

Perhaps other mostly sativas would be helpful?

 

Anyhow...thats the extent of my knowledge on the topic

[Guest Marywanna]

Maybe try the oil with a heating pad? Sorry you feel so cruddy,Irish. I would definetly medicate too. MW

Ouch, I KNOW those cramps and have one word-HASH! I mix a bit of hash with my strain of choice in my canister of the volcano and while that is warming up, I get the heating pad going and find the chocolate!!!!!

For your sake as well as your spouse, All of the above!

 

For the future, take a look at Evening Primrose Oil.

Find some that is cold pressed as most of it is extracted using heat, which ruins the oil, and hexane a neurotoxin.

 

Cannabis/hemp oil is good to take every day. Again look for cold pressed.

The Good Oils

 

Evening Primrose Oil

 

Evening primrose oil has been found by many women to reduce breast tenderness, irritability, mild depression, and bloating. As a PMS remedy, take 500mg twice a day. More information on evening primrose oil is available here.

 

Hemp Oil

 

Hemp oil contains omega 6 gamma linolenic acid (GLA), omega 3 fatty acids, and stearadonic acid (SDA). The World Health Organization recommends a fatty acid ratio of 4 parts omega 6 to one part omega 3. Hemp oil has a ratio of 3 to 1, which is the closest any oil comes to this ratio.

 

Because hemp oil has a nutty flavor, it can be easily added to recipes. And whilst flax oil has a higher level of omega 3 fatty acids, it does not contain any GLA or SDA.

 

Hemp oil also contains 3 times more vitamin E than flax oil, making it more stable both on the shelf and in the body. Flax oil can oxidize in the body before it is absorbed, which is why it really needs to be taken with an antioxidant.

LOLOL...........

 

I raided the Halloween candy I just bought yesterday "for the trick or treaters" earlier. LOL

 

The heating pad helps...........

 

I like the oil idea and the hash idea.

 

All good things guys! Thanks!

HMMMMMM so what about making MM oil with hemp oil as opposed to olive oil?

 

I've made it with grape seed oil before, but................hemp oil may be even more beneficial.

 

I have hemp seeds that we put on salads, or use in meatloaf, or meatballs, can sprinkle in muffins, or breads, cookies....etc. They are nutty as well.

 

Good info!

 

Thanks!

 

I also have heard of the evening primrose oil.....I'll look more into it!

I use shelled hemp seed in lots of stuff too, especially smoothies. I'm not sure of the recipe you're thinking about, but hemp oil is not good for cooking like olive and grape seed oil. It has a low smoke point. It needs to be refrigerated because it goes bad quick like flax oil. But it is super nutritious.

Such great advice you have gotten already so i will just add that i hope you are feeling better.. :-)

Personally i use the oil on the front and the lower back.. works like a charm for me coupled with a nap..

[Guest Marywanna]

Cannabutter in some hot chocolate works pretty well too Last night I massaged the oil onto my hands and wrists. When I got up this morning they did not hurt. Its true. The oil works and I can never thank PB enough.
