Women Embrace Cannabis for Perimenopause Relief

Perimenopause can be a challenging phase filled with debilitating symptoms and difficulty finding relief. It's especially frustrating for those that either cannot take hormones, or cannot afford the therapies necessary to gain relief. Cannabis can be a wonderful option to feel good during Perimenopause. (Please be aware that these symptoms are due to a hormonal decline. Hormone Therapy addresses the root cause and has valuable health benefits beyond symptom relief.
