Foria Relief: Cannabis vagina suppositories which 'eases period pain' sold in US
In the latest battle in the war against agonising period pains, suppositories filled with cannabis designed to be inserted into the vagina have hit the US market.

Many women experience period pain - or dysmenorrhoea - as the muscular wall of the womb contracts and presses against neighbouring blood vessels. This cuts off the blood supply to the womb, and causes pain, according to the NHS.

Similar in shape to tampons, the suppositories are said to deliver the pain-relieving properties of cannabis without making users feel high.

Sold in packs of four for $44 (£30), each FORIA Relief capsule contains 60mg of THC and 10mg of cannabidiol, as well as cocoa butter.

2. i would so celebrate a National Vagina Day

any day with some vagina in it is a good day by my reckoning. vaginas are overdue to receive national recognition for all the work they do to make life better for all of us.

3. I just thought it was an interesting article.

Do they even have a "National Vagina Day?"

8. No, but two vagina posts in GD in one day was somewhat remarkable

the hidden one had to do with, of all things, vagina weightlifting!

9. Well, I thought about putting this in health.

But it seemed to have a wider application.

Just because it's marijuana, doesn't mean the company has the best interests of others in mind. Be careful.

Here's a link to the doc's piece on it: https://drjengunter.wordpress.com/2016/01/28/vaginal-marijuana-for-menstrual-cramps-the-grass-isnt-always-greener/

7. Does it cause a craving for munchies?

[Agnosticsherbet]

10. The article says it also has cocoa butter. Perhaps that is built in munchie relief.

But all six would get me nuked in GD. Darn rules...
