NOW FoodsSupplements, Menopause Support, Blend Includes Standardized Herbal Extracts and Other Nutrients, 90 Veg Capsules

Ok, I very rarely write reviews, but this completely exceeded all my expectations and then some. Basically, I guess I was in a perimenopause hole for so long, I forgot what it felt like to be normal and not feel gross all the time. I tried this almost on a whim, just thinking "well, maybe it'll make me feel better... but probably won't." From the first night I took this, I felt a difference (never, ever would have suspected that!) and it's been going very well for a few weeks now. I'm just not constantly having hot flashes all night (I still occasionally have them, but MUCH fewer in frequency and also lower in intensity than before) and can sleep. I can wear clothes that don't totally "breathe" all the time (that was getting weird on the east coast in December and January, to only be wearing linen everywhere and still be broiling hot). And I do feel as though this has helped with brain fog as well. Honestly, if you're thinking about it, just give it a shot. I'm so glad I did.

I am shocked at the immediate results from taking this supplement. I was hopeful, but no way did I expect such relief. I have yet to figure out if my polyovarian cysts have been halting my periods or if peri-menopause’s halt of my periods are leading to cyst growth. Either way, I have been in hell for months from ovarian cyst rupturing, an episode of ovary torsion, hot flashes, insomnia, night sweats, heart palpitations, and brain fog. In case you wonder if I’ve seen a doctor, the answer is yes I wasted a visit or two. Last visit I declined the implant she suggested, which is known to CAUSE cysts. (Really??) Thank heaven for common sense and natural supplements.I took a single tablet two nights ago and slept. I actually slept. I didn’t have sweats, or palpitations all night, nor did I have a single hot flash all day. Seriously, that’s like a miracle. Last night I took 2 capsules before bed. Now, I was cramming for finals, drinking lots of coffee and eating lots of chocolate, so I set myself up royally for the mess of symptoms listed above. And yet I slept. Palpitations are still an issue, but that’s all my fault. Even with them, I am comfortable and relaxed.One more thing: I started ovulation within hours of the first dose. Mind blown. It seems like this blend of herbs was exactly what my body was needing.9/11/2022 UPDATEI continue to have great results with this supplement. I tend to be inconsistent with taking all forms of supplements, so I start and stop equally with this one. When symptoms show up to remind me I am off track, I start them again. Once again last month my period was delayed two weeks, with no signs of starting. That’s guaranteed ovary-trouble for me. I began the supplements again and within a couple days my period started again. Nothing but good things to say about this supplement!

I really like this product the only thingis I didn't like the daily dose. They recommendations to take 3. I am not a pill taker so that I don't like.

First, for anyone who's wondering/comparing products, FYI this is the exact same formulation as Nature's Goal Menopause Support, which is significantly more expensive. I started out using Nature's Goal for a couple months, then tried NOW because N.G. was out of stock, and discovered it's exactly the same. NOW works just as well as Nature's Goal (the way the labels are printed actually makes me think the manufacturer might be the same, but I no longer have an N.G. bottle to compare).I'm 48 and had been having night sweats, trouble sleeping and mood swings/weepy episodes. I'd already been taking evening primrose oil on the advice of my nurse-midwife, which might be why I hadn't had any daytime hotflashes - so I can't speak to that symptom. But the Nature's Goal/NOW Menopause Support worked very well and very quickly on the night sweats -- the first night I took it, I slept much better than I had for a while, and didn't wake up in the middle of the night, drenched in sweat and unable to get back to sleep.I was also under a lot of stress when I started taking the N.G. version, so I actually started taking another product, ZenRx (for anxiety) at the same time -- I posted a review about that (found it very helpful in leveling out my stress response, but not worth the $ compared to cost of purchasing ingredients separately, which is what I did). So I can't say for sure what product helped exactly how much or with exactly what symptoms -- but my sense is that the Menopause Support has helped level out the hormonal fluctuations and the accompanying symptoms (weepiness, night sweats, heart racing at night), while the ingredients of the ZenRx (I've continued taking sceletium tortuosa/"Zembrin" and sometimes kava kava and others individually for stress as needed) have helped with calming my thoughts/feelings and keeping me relaxed in stressful situations. And I've continued with the Evening Primrose Oil, too.There was a gap between the bottle I had and the 2-pack that came with my subscribe & save order, so I went 2-3 days without taking it, and the last night I had a minor night sweat episode, though not as bad as they had been -- so I expect to be taking it for a while. Sometimes I only take 2/day rather than 3, and that doesn't seem to have been a problem. Have been recommending it to my peri-menopausal friends!

I switched to this product because the Nature's Way black cohosh wasn't working as consistently as I had hoped since I resumed having intense hot flashes and night sweats within two weeks of starting it. After taking Menopause Support for about a week, the hot flashes/night sweats were completely gone. Now, I'm half way through my second bottle and the symptoms are still in hiding. Who knows how long this will keep up, but i'm going to enjoy the calm while it lasts. If you're having life disrupting symptoms and want something natural, give this a try.
