Looking for supplements to alleviate perimenopausal symptoms? You’re in the right place.

Whether you’re suffering with hot flushes, night sweats, low mood or any other uncomfortable symptom relating to perimenopause, we’ve got a range of different symptoms to help you decide which to buy.

What is perimenopause?

Perimenopause is the period in a woman’s life where her body makes the natural transition to the full menopause – where their periods completely stop.

One of our in-house experts, Alex Thompson, explains,

“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).”

What can perimenopause supplements do?

Tackling perimenopause should be approached from two angles.

Firstly, you could try perimenopause supplements that provide deep-acting hormonal support for the longer-term symptoms.

And secondly, you could use products that provide targeted extra support for specific symptoms, such as hot flushes, fatigue, dry skin etc.

Our favourite supplements for perimenopause

In order to provide the best perimenopause supplements, we asked our team of expert nutritionists to share their recommendations.

Holland & Barrett MenoCool Black Cohosh 60 Tablets

Vegetarian

Holland & Barrett

£20.59

£0.34/1 Tablet

How can it help?

Black cohosh is considered a hormonal support product to aid the symptoms of perimenopause – as well as menopause. Products like these contain phytoestrogens which mimic the effects of oestrogen, compensating for the declining levels of the body’s own oestrogen.
 

Why you'll love it

  • 6.5mg of black cohosh extract 
  • Used to relieve hot flushes, night sweats and mood changes
 

How to use

  • For oral use only
  • Swallow the tablet whole with some water or other liquid. Don't chew the tablets
  • For women experiencing menopausal symptoms, take one tablet daily
  • Tablets should be taken at the same time of day if possible (morning or evening)
 

What our customers say

Valerie – 5/5 stars – Miracle tablets 
"Highly recommended these, they have reduced my hot sweats down to one a day now" 

Mrs simo – 5/5 stars – Peri meno mood swings
“These tablets have changed my life! Stopped taking for 2 weeks and mood swings returned with a vengeance...back on them and calm is restored! Highly recommend”
 
A.Vogel Menoforce Sage Tablets 30 Tablets

Vegan

A.Vogel

£16.99

£0.57/1 Tablet

How can it help?

Moving onto perimenopause remedies for extra targeted support and relief of symptoms, we have sage tablets up first. 

Alex says, “These types of products help to tackle different symptoms of perimenopause head on. Their actions are specific to the symptom, rather than having a general hormonal effect. 

These extra products should be used in the interim period (for as long as required) until the deeper acting phytoestrogen products have had time to fully take effect.

Many women find that these can then be gradually phased out, whilst the phytoestrogen based products are continued longer term.” 

Sage is considered a traditional herbal medicine product and has been used for many years to help relieve excessive sweating, hot flushes and night sweats.
 

Why you'll love it

  • 51mg dried tincture from sage leaves per tablet 
  • Licensed herbal remedy 
 

How to take

  • Take one tablet daily
  • Not intended for use by persons under the age of 18
 

What our customers say

Donna – 5/5 stars – 'Instant' Relief 
“I have been putting up with hot flushes during the day and at night which have been getting progressively more frequent during the last year as these seemed to be my only symptoms and I didn't want to resort to HRT remedies. Finally had enough of it all and bought these on a recommendation and they were effective from day one. Would definitely recommend. Sign up for the monthly delivery for best prices.” 

Annette W – 5/5 stars – Helps Ease Menopause Symptoms 
“I am trying to take a more holistic approach to menopause, and these tablets seem to help ease some of my symptoms.”

However, we have listed a range of different supplements suitable for supporting a whole variety of perimenopause symptoms, so it’s best to do your research based on your own experience and choose from that.

Furthermore, those with a personal/ family history of hormonal cancers should also use these products cautiously. Other products will have specific cautions and these can be varied.

Ultimately, it is important to check with a GP or pharmacist before using any product if any there are any other health conditions or if any medicines are being taken.

The final say

Fortunately, there are an array of different supplements and vitamins for alleviating and managing the symptoms of perimenopause.
