Cannabidiol (CBD) is a chemical derived from the cannabis plant. CBD oil may help with some symptoms of menopause.
CBD is one of the more than 100 cannabinoids
Trusted Source in the cannabis plant. Unlike a more famous cannabinoid, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), CBD does not produce a euphoric high. CBD is psychoactive, meaning that it can influence a person’s mood, but it is non impairing.
Like any natural transition, menopause can cause uncomfortable changes, including hot flashes, sleep disturbances, and mood shifts. Researchers have looked at many herbal and natural remedies for these symptoms, and they have arrived at mixed results.
However recently, there has been much interest in the possible benefits of CBD, and some research suggests that it may relieve certain symptoms of menopause.
How could CBD oil affect menopause?
The endocannabinoid system is a collection of cell receptors, called cannabinoid receptors, in the brain, other organs, and tissues throughout the body.
This system plays an important role in menopause, and cannabis and CBD affect the way that it works. In theory, this means that cannabis and CBD could influence the effects of menopause on the body.
Cannabinoid receptors are involved in:
mood regulation
the functioning of the immune system
sleep
memory
fertility and reproduction
temperature regulation
One theory is that a poorly functioning endocannabinoid system can lead to various health conditions. By influencing the function of the endocannabinoid system, chemicals like CBD may help treat these conditions.
The endocannabinoid system is a collection of cell receptors, called cannabinoid receptors, in the brain, other organs, and tissues throughout the body.
There are cannabinoid receptors throughout the female reproductive system, and menopause seems to disrupt the endocannabinoid system. For these reasons, it is possible that CBD oil could reduce some symptoms of menopause.
