From hot flushes to mood changes, perimenopause can bring a whole host of changes to your body, but it doesn’t have to leave you feeling unbalanced.1
One of our in-house expert, Alex Thompson, tells us that, “levels of oestrogen, the main female sex hormone, fluctuate in this period but ultimately start to decline more and more, causing changes to the length of the menstrual cycle, as well as milder versions of the classic symptoms often experienced during the menopause (hot flushes, mood swings, anxiety, brain fog, dry skin, thinning hair, fatigue, reduced libido and vaginal dryness).”
How to choose the right perimenopause product
When it comes to supporting the lifestage of perimenopause, certain herbs and plant-based remedies have been getting a lot of love. But is there any truth to their buzzworthy reputations?
Some of the most popular go-tos include:3
But while some women find them helpful, the scientific evidence is still limited and side effects or drug interactions are possible.2,7 Make sure you get the go ahead first from your GP before trying any new supplements (and always read the label before use).
A healthy, varied diet is essential as you approach menopause.8 As oestrogen levels drop, the risk of certain health conditions, including obesity, cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis starts to rise – but good nutrition may help tip the odds in your favour.8
Certain vitamins and minerals play key roles in supporting your body through this transition, especially B vitamins, like B6 which contribute to the reduction of tiredness. Whilst vitamin C helps with energy, vitamin D is here to support maintenance of normal bones and also supports absorption of calcium.8 Women during menopause and post menopause have significantly less calcium due to decrease in bone mineral density and absorption of calcium from the diet.
While many women already get enough through their diet, some may benefit with supporting their intake – especially when it comes to vitamin D and calcium.1,8 If you’re not sure whether you’re deficient, a home vitamin blood test can help, which you can then discuss the results with your doctor
Always check with your GP before trying something new. They’ll be able to help you figure out what’s safe to take alongside any medications you’re already on or any health conditions you’re managing.1,3

Are perimenopause vitamins and supplements suitable for everyone?
As herbal remedies aren’t strictly regulated, there are some concerns that they may cause health problems in some people.3 Even when research does exist, studies don’t always investigate the potential side effects thoroughly.6
For example, there’s ongoing discussion around phytoestrogens (like red clover extract), which have a structure similar to oestrogen and may lead to side effects.2,6
So, before taking any perimenopause supplements, it’s important to speak to your GP or a pharmacist to make sure they’re a safe option for you.
The final say
If perimenopause symptoms are affecting your daily life, some products may offer some relief, but it’s important to do your research and check in with a healthcare professional before diving in.1-8
Your doctor can also talk you through other support options, including hormone replacement therapy (HRT) if that feels right for you.
