Product Overview
Menopause Support is a herbal dietary supplement containing soy isoflavones, magnesium and hibiscus extract for all stages of the menopause.
Menopause Support can be used to help you through all stages of the menopause.
The 2015 NICE guidelines for menopause (2015) confirm there is some evidence that isoflavones may relieve vasomotor symptoms (in other words, flushing and temperature changes).
If hot flushes, excessive sweating or night sweats are your main menopausal symptoms, you might like to consider using Menoforce® Sage Tablets - a licensed herbal remedy formulated specifically to treat menopausal hot flushes and night sweats.
