Cannabis Tampons Are Now a Thing

Is your time of the month a particularly painful one? Do you live in Colorado or California with a medical marijuana card? Then you're in luck! Natural cannabis tampons have been mentioned in the past but are now available in limited markets, with hopes of expanding to all legal marijuana states. Where motrin, midol, and other pain killers might not alleviate cramps as desired, the mixture of coca butter, THC oil and CBD isolate from organically grown hemp have some praising the suppository for its muscle relaxing and rain relieving properties. You can purchase the 4-pack for $44 from the company Floria.

Foria says their primary focus is on relieving pain, with an intention to “share the powerful medicinal properties of this plant while utilizing modern extraction techniques to standardize purity and potency.” Creating a tampon, rather than a pill per se, helps “deliver the medicine directly to where it is needed most.”
