Cramps can range from mildly uncomfortable to downright debilitating, making it impossible for people to complete their daily responsibilities.
If you’re among the countless women who are forced to endure the wrath of PMS, with its cramps, bloating, headaches, and mood swings each month, then cannabis just might be the solution you’ve been looking for.

There’s no denying that coffee and cannabis are both popular. What’s perhaps less clear is how coffee and cannabis consumption overlap, but with the rise of infused coffee products, it’s safe to say pairing coffee with cannabis is pretty common.
Personally, I’ve consumed coffee and cannabis almost daily for nearly a decade and they both enrich my life.
Still, mixing them harmoniously has been a journey for me.
