Curious about cannabis sexual enhancement oils? Are CBD vaginal suppositories safe? Pam Miles and Dr. Cindy Orser, the visionaries behind Apothercare Advocacy and Research, share what they have learned from testing the safety and efficacy of over 30 intimate care products, some of which contain THC and CBD. We discuss how cannabis suppositories, sexual enhancement products, and washes and douches affect the vaginal microbiome. They offer some important warnings about these products and share promising (although not quite proven) research about the potential application of cannabis compounds, like CBD, to be used for various women’s health issues, like pelvic pain, candida, and Bacterial Vaginosis.
