How the Endocannabinoid System Keeps Female Hormones in Ebb and Flow Versus Push and Pull Seed Your Success

On today’s podcast, we welcome the PROFOUND, Dr. Feice Gersh.
I’ve followed Dr. Gersh’s research around women’s hormones, PCOS and now her incredible insights around the relationship between Estrogen and the Endocannabinoid System.
Many women are lost in their journey of hormone health, but more than anything the beauty of living in the alignment of our circadian rhythms that help our endocrine and fertility (no matter if you want a baby or - not) in balance.
While taking CBD or Marijuana may seem like an easy - hit answer, it may not be. Specifically when we talk about Marijuana. Dr. Gersh does an incredible job of weaving together what we now “newly” know about the Endocannabinoid System, and it’s critical importance as it works with estrogen, our microbiome, bone health, mental health and so much more.
I’ve owned an organic salon for over 15 years, create my own natural product line and love educating women about the importance of hormone health with a functional medicine perspective - so Felice and my passion for women are in alignment. Especially for young women and their growing daughters.
About Felice Gersh
Dr. Gersh is a rare combination of a Board-Certified OB/GYN who also integrates and is trained in Integrative Medicine.
Her career has evolved over the years into one which utilizes the most cutting-edge diagnostic testing, while incorporating science-based therapies – from the herbal to the surgical – to assist in the healing process.
Adept in all areas of women’s health, Dr. Gersh is especially renowned for her expertise in the hormonal management of women, with a unique specialization in PCOS, which affects 1 in 10 women. She also approaches the female aging process in a holistic manner, comprehensively addressing the negative impact of sleep disturbances, pharmaceuticals, environmental toxins, nutrient and hormonal deficiencies, gut microbiome imbalances, and chronic stress.

How symptoms of menopause may arise from reduced endocannabinoid activity.Osteoporosis and how Estrogen prevents bone resorption (the breakdown of bone tissue being released into the blood causing calcification of the body).
