TL;DR: It is argued that future studies require a more inclusive, considered analysis of gonadal steroid hormones and the intricacies of the interactions between them, with methodological rigour applied, to enhance the understanding of the roles of steroid hormones in psychiatric disorders.

TL;DR: An overview of recent research identifying neurological pathways by which different cannabinoid-based treatments may exert their effects on PTSD symptomology is presented to aid selection of appropriate tools for future clinical trials.

TL;DR: It is clear that therapeutic modulation of the endocannabinoid system needs to be approached with awareness of ovarian hormonal influences, and knowledge of these influences may enhance treatment outcomes for female PTSD populations.

TL;DR: It is argued that the utmost attention should be paid to the development of modelling approaches of physiological data in associative learning paradigms, by illustrating the lack of replicability and interpretability of results in current methods.

TL;DR: It is found that salivary endogenous cannabinoids and cortisol are acutely responsive to exercise, suggesting that targeting the saliva system may present a convenient way for future research of endogenous cannabinoids.
