Menopause Symptoms Relief with Menozac FAQ

1. What does Menozac recommend to Hormone Replacement Therapy users?

For over a decade, Menozac has been cautioning women about the risks of synthetic HRT. We believe it should be a last resort, not a first choice. In general, we recommend that everyone first try a natural approach such as the Personal Program. Weaning off HRT should be gradual, not "cold turkey". We include detailed instructions in your new member package.

2. What are the symptoms of perimenopause?

Perimenopause can be defined as the time before menopause. Having symptoms of perimenopause can mean that the woman is getting closer to the age of menopause and the ending of monthly menstrual periods. Common symptoms of perimenopause include hot flashes or night sweats, difficulty sleeping through the night, weight gain (especially around the mid-section), vaginal dryness, mood swings or depression and feelings of confusion. Most women don’t experience all symptoms associated with perimenopause, but it’s quite likely that you’ll notice at least some changes occurring as you approach menopause.

3. Why is Menozac's better than what I get at my local health food store?

There are several key differences. First, our products are made to pharmaceutical standards. Second, we use only the finest, most bio-available nutrient forms, including six patented nutrients, to ensure adequate nutrients actually reach your bloodstream. Third, every production batch is assayed in a laboratory to ensure its purity and potency. In fact, even our essential fatty acids, which are derived from cold water fish, are tested to ensure they contain no mercury. And of course, the Essential Nutrients are completely natural, with no artificial anything. Click here for more information.

4. How concerned should I be about the NIH study of HRT risks?

Menozac has a long history of recommending a natural approach to hormonal balance. We believe that synthetic hormones commonly used in hormone replacement therapy should be a last resort, not a first choice. We suggest you read our article, "Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) Side Effects".

5. Will Menozac help me even if I've had a hysterectomy?

Yes, Menozac will benefit your general health and your hormonal balance, even if you've had a hysterectomy, and whether or not you also had your ovaries removed. (Over half the women who keep their ovaries nevertheless suffer loss of ovarian function). Note that we generally recommend that women under 40 who have had a hysterectomy consider natural hormone replacement therapy to mimic the body's natural progression into perimenopause.

6. I'm on a prescription drug. Does Menozac interact with my prescription?

Menozac is an all-natural program with no drug interactions. However, you should always disclose to your primary health care provider, who needs to be aware of any supplements you are taking.

7. I've had breast cancer. Does the Menozac affect my risk of a recurrence?

Menozac will not increase your risk of a recurrence. In fact, a study in the Journal of the American Medical Association recommended that every American adult take nutritional supplements to reduce the risk of cancer. (JAMA, Vol. 287, No. 23, June 19, 2002.)

8. I have PMS, and I'm in my 20's. Will Menozac help?

PMS is a form of hormonal imbalance just like the symptoms of perimenopause. In fact, women who have suffered from PMS are more likely to have a difficult perimenopause. Menozac should be effective in helping to mitigate your symptoms.

9. I'm only 30. Can my symptoms really be perimenopause?

Your symptoms may well be the result of the hormonal imbalances of perimenopause. Many women experience their first such hormonal changes in their 30's.
