Sanitary tampons with cannabinoids
Cannabinoids act on the nerve endings of the uterus, cervix, and muscle tissue around the ovary. In addition, they are able to eliminate the discomfort caused by menstrual pain that women experience throughout their lives. Those. A tampon soaked with cannabinoids not only “works” as an effective hygiene product, but is also a local anesthetic. Depending on the concentration, the action of cannabinoids can be local or spread throughout the body.
On the pages of the profile electronic publication of Ukrainian hemp breeders, cannabis trends in the production of products for feminine hygiene were repeatedly described. In particular, the materials “ Hygiene products for women with cannabinoids ”, “ Hygienic tampons based on the therapeutic properties of hemp will appear on the American market ”, “ Hemp tampons - a new remedy for menstrual pain ” explained the mechanisms for introducing women’s, European and South American markets hygiene products, which include drug-free cannabinoids. This material describes the mechanism by which a number of women's problems are solved if elements soaked in cannabinoids are used in the products used.
During excavations by Israeli archaeologists, the skeleton of a girl who died in childbirth in the 4th century was found. On the costal bones of the skeleton, hemp elements were introduced, introduced into the body inside immediately before death. Obviously, already at that time cannabis was known as a painkiller and was actively used to solve the problems of the female genitourinary system.
Women suffer from periodic / persistent menstrual pain during the physiological period, in addition, they are prone to fatigue and emotional irritability. One of the American brands of feminine hygiene products specifically for solving such problems has developed a “hemp swab,” which can effectively solve the problem of menstrual pain and shows effectiveness 15-20 minutes after application.
The basis of the technology was the analgesic effect of hemp. The principle of the product is extremely simple - cannabinoids affect the nerve endings of the uterus, cervix and muscle tissue around the ovary. In addition, they are able to eliminate the discomfort caused by menstrual pain that women experience throughout their lives. Those. A tampon soaked with cannabinoids not only “works” as an effective hygiene product, but is also a local anesthetic. Depending on the concentration, the action of cannabinoids can be local or spread throughout the body. In this regard, the use of hemp swabs solves not only the problems of the genitourinary system of the female body. Their use positively affects the general condition of the female body, i.e. It has a calming, analgesic, prophylactic, restorative and other therapeutic effects.
Commentary of the Ukrainian Technical Hemp Association
In the US market, “ Marketing moves that bring to the top sales the traditional hemp remedies for menstrual pain relief ” are actively used . At the moment, in our country, the first attempts are made to manufacture hygiene products, which may include drug-free cannabinoids. These developments are most likely to be implemented outside of Ukraine due to the fact that issues related to the legal use of cannabinoids in sanitary and hygienic products are currently not sufficiently regulated by the national regulatory framework.
