About event

Cannabis has been used since antiquity to ease illness, increase sex drive, and highlight the pleasures of life. Pair that with the increasing availability of legal cannabis products in the US, and it's no surprise that many people are exposed to cannabis throughout their lives. In spite of this exposure from preconception through menopause, the long-term effects of cannabis are not widely understood.

Join us to discuss what we know, and what we still need to know, about the effects of cannabis on:

*Sexual health and function
*Reproductive health and fertility
*Pregnancy and offspring
*Menopausal symptoms
