Should cannabis be used in the management of endometriosis?

While there is a lack of high-quality clinical trial evidence, significant self-reported evidence from cross-sectional surveys and retrospective observational data suggests that those consuming medicinal cannabis report reductions in endometriosis symptoms such as pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea and gastrointestinal symptoms, and improve mental health and sleep. Given the low levels of satisfaction with current treatment options, consideration should be given to trialing medicinal cannabis as part of the interdisciplinary management of endometriosis in those who express interest and who do not demonstrate any significant contraindications.
