Episode 28: CBG for Hot Flashes? Real Talk on Cannabis and Hormones

Menopause and perimenopause can bring unexpected changes. Hot flashes, mood shifts, sleep disruption, and changes in motivation often arrive with little preparation and even less guidance. Yet one important biological system that helps regulate balance in the body is rarely part of the conversation. In this episode of Effective Cannabis Conversations, Debi Wimberley sits down with Cannabis coach Alex Mitchell to explore how the Endocannabinoid System may play a role in supporting women through hormonal transitions. Alex shares her personal experience navigating perimenopause and menopause symptoms, including hot flashes, mood changes, and seasonal depression, while learning how specific cannabinoids such as CBG affected her body. Together, they discuss where Cannabis may provide supportive tools, where hormone therapy still plays an important role, and why understanding your own Endocannabinoid System response is key. This is an honest, thoughtful discussion about education, personal experimentation, and empowering women with more options and knowledge during this stage of life. If you are curious about the connection between Cannabis, hormones, and the Endocannabinoid System, this conversation will give you new insights and practical perspectives. 🌿 Top Takeaways - CBG may help hot flashes for some women - Cannabis is not a hormone replacement - Perimenopause often starts earlier than women realize - Menopause care needs systemic change About Effective Cannabis   https://effectivecannabis.com/ Effective Cannabis is an innovative channel dedicated to exploring, studying, learning, and teaching about Medical Cannabis by working to advance dialogue in regards to Cannabis’s therapeutic potentials and its positive influence on patients’ health outcomes.
