How will it help me?

In clinical trials, women experienced the following results: 

  • 71% Decrease in moderate to severe hot flashes
  • 54% Decrease in night awakenings due to hot flashes
  • 8% Reduction in LDL cholesterol
  • 6% Reduction in systolic blood pressure
  • 1.5% Reduction in BMI for reduced menopausal weight gain

How does it work?

Natural Menopause Relief consists of synergistically combined botanicals that, as a sum, provide a more potent mixture than the ingredients taken individually.

During peri/menopause, changes in estrogen levels lead to symptoms. This patented blend of powerful herbs specifically stimulates beta-type estrogen receptors to provide relief from hot flashes, night sweats, and insomnia.

What is the difference between perimenopause and menopause? 

At its most technical, “menopause” is the moment when you’ve gone a whole year without a period. Everything leading up to this is perimenopause and all that comes after is post-menopause. 

You might have noticed that this isn’t how the words are usually used. In practice, menopause is often associated with things like missed periods and hot flashes, while perimenopause is most frequently used if you’re still in your 30s or 40s. Clearly, there’s overlap (you can very much be in your 40s and have hot flashes), and the takeaway is that while the terms are arbitrary, the cause isn’t: Beginning in your mid-to-late 30s, your body’s production of estrogen begins to slow. By the time you hit your 40s and beyond, you’ll start to feel the impact of this. For more information, see our overview here.

Safety & Quality

Is it safe?

Our non-hormonal formula is designed to be safe and suitable for all women, including those who have had or are at risk for breast and uterine cancer, heart attacks, strokes, or blood clots. There have been no reported long term effects.

Femistry Natural Menopause Relief has been tested in clinical trials to validate safety, tolerability, and efficacy. In all trials, the treatment was well-tolerated and demonstrated no safety concerns. Each manufacturing lot undergoes contaminant safety testing - at the time of manufacturing and again after it has been packaged. These tests screen for pesticides, heavy metals and microbiological contaminants.*



Are there any side effects?

In clinical trials, 12% of women experienced mild loose stools in the first two weeks of treatment. This is due to pectins and other insoluble fiber components of the formula. For some women this side effect was a benefit, as it can help relieve constipation associated with menopause. If you have specific concerns, we recommend you discuss this formula with your doctor. For more information on the clinical research on Femistry's formula, see here.

How do you ensure a high-quality product?

In order to ensure a high-quality end product, we carefully oversee each step of the manufacturing process. Quality, safety, potency and efficacy are strictly controlled by applying the highest standards of operating procedures and quality control.

The aim of batch-to-batch product consistency sets a high bar for herbal extract products. Raw materials are primarily derived from natural sources, whose quality is greatly influenced by place of origin, weather patterns, harvesting conditions, storage and processing.  Femistry employs stringent modern compliance standards, fulfilling fundamental requirements of product consistency and stability through years of experience with FDA-mandated Good Manufacturing Procedures (GMP). To ensure batch-to-batch consistency, potency and safety, we complete the following quality checks:

Macroscopic inspection to ensure the proper herb has been identified and the effective part of the plant is used.

Microscopic inspection for morphological authentication of the raw herb.

Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) to verify the identity of herb species by comparing its unique analytical identification with a certified reference standard for the herb.

Inductively Coupled Plasma/Mass Spectrometry (ICP/MS) to measure heavy metal elements, ensuring product safety.

Microbiology testing to screen for yeast, mold and pathogenic microorganisms.
