Omega-3 fatty acids
Herbal supplements
Magnesium
Magnesium supports many processes in the body, yet people often don’t get enough. Evidence for menopause symptoms is limited, but magnesium supports overall health.
Soy isoflavones
Soy contains plant compounds called isoflavones, which interact weakly with estrogen receptors. Evidence for menopause symptoms is mixed. Some studies show modest improvement in hot flashes, and others show little to no benefit.
Herbal supplements
Many herbal supplements are marketed for menopause, including black cohosh, chasteberry, and dong quai. Results are inconsistent, and there’s no strong evidence that these remedies significantly reduce hot flashes.
Fiber supplements
Fiber may not be a nutrient people often associate with menopause, but it’s important for long-term health. Many people don’t get enough. Fiber supplements support heart and digestive health but do not directly treat menopause symptoms.
Creatine
Creatine is often known as a sports supplement, but researchers are studying its use during the menopause transition. Some research suggests that creatine plus strength training may help maintain muscle mass during and after menopause.
Calcium
Calcium helps keep bones and teeth strong. Getting enough during perimenopause may help slow bone loss. Evidence for calcium supplements is strong for bone health, but they don’t relieve most menopause symptoms, such as hot flashes.
Omega-3 fatty acids
Omega-3 fatty acids — healthy fats found in fish such as salmon, sardines, and mackerel — are also available as supplements. Evidence is strong for heart health but limited for menopause, with no clear benefit for treating symptoms directly.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D works closely with calcium. Your body needs it to absorb calcium and maintain healthy bones. Many adults have low vitamin D levels, especially with limited sun exposure. Studies show supplements can improve vitamin D levels and support bone health when combined with calcium.
