There are numerous dietary supplements available over the counter for menopausal needs and it can be a daunting task to decide between them. When considering a natural alternative for menopause, be sure to ask your pharmacist or healthcare professional the following:

Is the Product Standardized?

Standardization is important when comparing natural alternatives. With a standardized product each tablet contains the same amount of active ingredient. If a product is not standardized, the amount of active ingredient in each tablet can vary. This means that the dose you take will also vary.

Does the Product have Clinical Support?

Be confident that the exact formulation of the product has been clinically trialed.

Is the Product Safe and Well Tolerated?

As well as trials to support the effectiveness of the product, does the product have trials to show it is well tolerated?

Does It Offer Help for Multiple Symptoms?

Does the product offer more than relief from the visible symptoms of menopause, by also helping to maintain bone and cholesterol health?
