As men age, their bodies produce less testosterone and the necessary hormones required for physical performance and sexual stimulation. These declining hormone levels can lead to fatigue, memory loss, depression, anxiety, erectile dysfunction, and loss of sex drive.

As women age, their bodies produce less testosterone, progesterone and estrogen whether from menopause, surgery or a traumatic injury. Symptoms can include hot flashes, sleep disruption, fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, lack of sexual desire, joint/muscle pain or even depression.

Medical cannabis helps manage chronic pain by interacting with the body’s endocannabinoid system. Cannabinoids like THC and CBD bind to receptors in the brain and nervous system, influencing pain perception and inflammation. THC primarily affects pain perception and mood, while CBD has anti-inflammatory properties. Together, these compounds can reduce pain, improve mood and enhance sleep. Medical cannabis should be used under medical supervision to ensure effectiveness and safety. Medical cannabis may benefit individuals experiencing chronic pain from conditions such as:

Arthritis: To alleviate joint pain and inflammation.
Neuropathic Pain: For pain resulting from nerve damage or dysfunction.
