Cannabis for Endometriosis & Chronic Pain | Melanie Wentzel | EP04

When endometriosis pain is normalized and women are dismissed, cannabis often enters the conversation as both a medical option and a source of tension. In this episode of Endo Warriors, host Callie Greenberg speaks with international speaker, healthcare strategist, and bestselling author Melanie Wentzel about the science of cannabis for chronic pain, the stigma women still face when they ask about it, and what every endo patient deserves to know. Melanie breaks down how cannabinoids interact with the endocannabinoid system, what the research actually says about cannabis for endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain, and how to have a real conversation with your doctor about it. She and Callie also get into the gendered double standard around women's pain management, why so many women are told to just take ibuprofen, and what changes when patients walk in informed. If you've been quietly curious about cannabis for endo, period pain, or chronic illness, this is the unfiltered breakdown.
