Endometriosis is a painful condition that affects 1 in 9 people who are women or assigned female at birth in Australia, totaling over 830,000 individuals. It occurs when tissue similar to the womb lining grows in other parts of the body, causing ongoing pain, inflammation, organ damage, and possible infertility.
The causes, symptoms, and cures for this disease are not fully understood. Most women in Australia have to wait over 6 years for an accurate diagnosis, and the available treatments can be invasive and have unpleasant side effects.
Because of these difficulties, there’s a growing interest in alternative therapies for those with endometriosis. One option being explored is Medical Cannabis, which may help alleviate pain and potentially treat the disease itself.
