If you’re curious about CBD suppositories but not sure how they fit into your daily routine, you’re not alone. While many people are familiar with CBD oils, edibles, or topicals, suppositories offer a targeted and efficient delivery method—especially when it comes to pelvic wellness and overall body relaxation.
At MedRoots, we specialize in plant-based suppositories designed with purpose—crafted by medical professionals who understand the needs of real people navigating discomfort, pelvic tension, hormonal shifts, and more. Whether you’re using them to wind down, support pelvic therapy, or manage monthly cycles, suppositories can be a seamless and supportive part of your wellness plan.
Here are our top tips for making CBD suppositories a regular (and stress-free) part of your self-care routine.
1. Understand Why Suppositories Work
CBD suppositories are designed to be inserted vaginally or rectally, where they can be absorbed through mucosal tissue. This method bypasses the digestive system, allowing for faster, more targeted absorption than edibles or tinctures.
This route is beneficial for people seeking:
- Relief in the pelvic area (menstrual support, pelvic floor tension, etc.)
- Soothing support during hormonal fluctuations
- Alternatives to oral CBD for those with sensitive stomachs or GI concerns
Understanding this makes it easier to feel confident and intentional when incorporating suppositories into your routine.
2. Choose the Right Time of Day
There’s no universal “perfect” time to use a suppository—it depends on your needs and lifestyle. That said, many people prefer using them during moments of rest, so the body has time to absorb the ingredients fully.
Common times people use CBD suppositories:
- Evening wind-down routines
- Before or after pelvic physical therapy
- During menstruation, for targeted comfort
- After intimacy or strenuous activity
- Before bed to support relaxation and sleep
Consistency is key, so try using your suppository at the same time of day when possible—just like you would with supplements or skincare.
3. Pair With a Mindful Ritual
Because CBD suppositories encourage the body to relax, they pair beautifully with calming routines. Think of it as a moment to slow down, tune into your body, and prioritize your well-being.
Try pairing your suppository use with:
- A warm bath or shower
- Gentle stretching or restorative yoga
- Journaling or deep breathing
- Cozying up with a book or soothing playlist
Adding intention to your routine not only enhances the experience but also helps reinforce your self-care habits.
4. Store Them Properly for Maximum Freshness
CBD suppositories are made with natural ingredients, such as coconut oil, which allows them to soften at warm temperatures. We recommend storing them in a cool, dry place—or even in the fridge—for easier handling.
Pro tip:
If you’re inserting vaginally and feeling sensitive, a cool suppository can also feel extra soothing!
5. Prep and Position for Comfort
Suppository use is easy and quick—but a little preparation goes a long way. Wash your hands, find a comfortable space, and give yourself privacy and time.
Position ideas:
- Lying on your back with knees bent
- Lying on your side with knees drawn toward your chest
- Squatting or standing with one leg elevated
Once inserted, lie down or stay still for a few minutes to allow the product to melt and absorb. Most users don’t feel anything during or after insertion—it’s subtle, gentle, and designed to work quietly in the background.
6. Be Consistent—but Flexible
Suppositories can be used daily, weekly, or as needed, depending on your goals. Some people use them as part of a preventive routine, while others turn to them during flare-ups, cycles, or after intense activity.
Start with a few uses per week and adjust as your body responds. Listen to how you feel, and allow your needs to shift with time.
7. Keep It Clean and Sustainable
Many of our users ask about cleanup or post-use tips. The good news? Suppositories are designed to absorb almost entirely, with minimal mess. Still, wearing a light panty liner or using them before bed can help you feel more comfortable—especially during the learning curve.
Our packaging is recyclable, and our ingredients are biodegradable, so that you can feel good about your wellness choices for both your body and the planet.
8. Track How You Feel
One of the best ways to find your rhythm with CBD suppositories is to track how they make you feel. Use a journal, notes app, or cycle tracker to log:
- When you use them
- What symptoms are you managing
- How your body responds over time
- What other habits or routines support your relief
This helps you identify patterns, determine the optimal time for use, and communicate more effectively with your healthcare provider if needed.
