Understanding menopause
Black cohosh is a perennial plant native to North America and is part of the buttercup family.
Perimenopause is the period ‘around menopause’ that includes the 4–8 year transitional stage leading up to menopause. During this time, irregular menstrual periods become more common as menstrual cycles change and hormone levels fluctuate, which can trigger symptoms such as:
Although menopause most commonly occurs between 45 and 55 years of age, some women may experience it earlier. Menopause occurring between 40 and 45 years is known as ‘early menopause’, and menopause occurring before age 40 is called ‘premature ovarian insufficiency’ (POI). POI affects roughly 4 in 100 women and differs from usual-age menopause. Due to the unique needs of women going through POI, it’s important to seek advice from a healthcare professional.
Yes, Remifemin can generally be taken alongside other medications or supplements. However, please consult a healthcare professional to check whether Remifemin is right for you.
It is important to know that you should not take Remifemin if you are allergic to the active ingredient, Black Cohosh root (Actaea racemosa), or any of the other ingredients in Remifemin.
Remifemin relieves hot flushes and helps reduce night sweats. Women taking Remifemin in a clinical trial noticed a significant reduction in hot flushes and night sweats after 1 month of treatment. ‡
Remifemin is not a hormone treatment; it is a plant-based herbal product for menopause containing the natural active ingredient Black Cohosh root (Actaea racemosa), which has been studied for over 60 years in relation to menopausal symptoms.
Mood swings and irritability can be common during menopause due to hormonal changes. Black Cohosh extract has traditionally been used in Western herbal medicine to help manage climacteric symptoms of menopause, and its effects on low mood and anxiety have been studied as part of overall menopausal symptom relief.
While lifestyle changes may not necessarily reduce menopausal symptoms directly, maintaining a healthy weight, engaging in regular exercise for overall wellbeing, and other approaches such as cognitive behaviour therapy may improve wellbeing and help women better tolerate symptoms during this time.
Remifemin can be used during perimenopause and throughout menopause to help relieve menopause symptoms of night sweats and hot flushes.
Take 1 Remifemin tablet twice daily (morning and night) with water.
