Today’s Solutions: August 15, 2026

Many women experience severe and intense pain during their monthly menstruation. According to the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, at least half of all women who get their periods experience one or two days of cramping. Many try to find relieve with traditional medicines like Midol or complimentary treatments like acupuncture. Foria Relief is a new, marihuana based, treatment that shows interesting success. Foria Relief is a THC-infused suppository that’s come to be known as the “weed tampon.” The company says it won’t get you—or your vagina—high, but it might be the cure for what menstrually ails you. Foria states that “on average, women are reporting relief within 15-30 minutes of insertion.”
