Cannabis for Decreased Libido
Decreased libido (loss of sex drive) is a common occurence amongst both men and women. It can be caused by stress, depression & anxiety, insomnia, chronic pain, or any number of illnesses and diseases. Due to cannabinoids’ anti-anxiety and stress-busting effects, it can help people relax and rediscover their mojo! Interestingly, cannabis has been known to both increase and decrease libido. Chronic cannabis use in men has been shown to reduce sex drive, but the opposite has also been shown in men; and some have shown that some women’s libido may increase after cannabis use! More research is needed.
