CBD and Endometriosis

Why are we talking

about cannabis and CBD in relation to endometriosis?

Because a whopping 76% percent of people with endometriosis use self-care strategies to manage their pain and other symptoms. (Armour, et al., 2019).

When your clients have endometriosis, you know that pelvic pain relief is always a priority.

Recent studies indicate that CBD and cannabis are powerful tools for combating endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.

Since people with endometriosis are using self-care strategies, we want to be sure to educate them on the most effective strategies to use any CBD or cannabis-related products, such as topicals, edibles, etc.

CBD & Endometriosis: How Cannabidiol Can Help Relieve Endometriosis Pain 

Why are we talking about cannabis and CBD in relation to endometriosis?

Because a whopping 76% percent of people with endometriosis use self-care strategies to manage their pain and other symptoms. (Armour, et al., 2019).

When your clients have endometriosis, you know that pelvic pain relief is always a priority.

Recent studies indicate that CBD and cannabis are powerful tools for combating endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.

In a recent study out of Australia, women with endometriosis-related chronic pelvic pain reported that four self-care activities had the most positive effects on their pain: “Cannabis, heat, hemp/CBD oil, and dietary changes were the most highly rated in terms of self-reported effectiveness in pain reduction (with mean effectiveness of 7.6, 6.52, 6.33, and 6.39, respectively, on a 10-point scale).” (Armour, et al., 2019)

PRAISE FOR THE INTEGRATIVE WOMEN’S HEALTH INSTITUTE

“Often we focus on where we need to go instead of celebrating the success along the way. It feels so good to have the support and great knowledge that Jessica has to share. It really goes a long way. 6 months ago I was 30 pounds heavier, had thyroid problems, metabolism slow as you can imagine, felt stressed almost 100% of the time and felt sluggish along with that. No energy and I was an angry mom most of the time! And sex was a no-no, no way, no thank you, hurts too much! Fast forward to today and I am a true believer in “ask and it is given”.

I asked for help and direction and Jessica showed up! My life has almost completely changed. I feel healed from the inside out, 30 lbs lighter, mentally lighter, up for sex again and actually feeling vibrant! I feel very grateful and really know now anything is possible. We can heal our lives and our bodies. I just want to thank you, Jessica, for doing what you do and for being a light for us sharing your experience and wisdom and making a difference in the world! Big love!!”

“Jessica is so wise. IWHI is a sanctuary for women who have felt totally dismissed or unsupported by the conventional “women’s health” medicine and programs out there.

Sometimes it’s serious conversations and sometimes it feels like a glass of wine with my girlfriends.

No matter what, the information and support is top notch and one of a kind.”

Lily Starling

NCMT, Holistic Business Evolution

“A few years ago, the pull to expand my knowledge brought me to IWHI, where I completed the Endometriosis Coaching program and most recently, the Business Mastermind & Women’s Health Coaching programs.

It was during this new adventure that I realized how my skill in coaching could benefit so many women beyond what I had been able to offer in my physical therapy practice.

I knew I could provide compassionate support to women in perimenopause and menopause to find within themselves the resources and tools that they had not been able to get from a traditional model of care.

I realized, both through my own journey and through what I was learning throughout the programs, that it takes a village of support, it takes listening and reflection to achieve optimal health and wellbeing.”

“Integrative, evidence-based, practical and empowering. Jessica Drummond is a leader in integrative women’s health and her vast experience and compassion makes this a must-read!

It’s both practical and empowering.

As a nutritionist working with women with anxiety, I am thrilled to have this comprehensive evidence-based book as a resource for those in my community who are on their healing journey.”

Trudy Scott

Author of The Antianxiety Food Solution

“I am a functional medicine/chiropractor and while I have had access to some of the best training, Jessica Drummond pulls it all together for you specific to women’s health issues.

She has a knack for keeping it clear and concise and simplified so you can easily integrate into your current practice. I love that Dr. Drummond stays up to date on research. She also has connections with the brightest minds in these areas of women’s health and brings them in to do lectures in the modules.

The content is very well organized and easily digestible. This has helped me niche down every further in my integrative women’s health practice.”
