Description
Summary:<p> <b>L.V.&nbsp;Saprykina, M.R.&nbsp;Narimanova, D.M.&nbsp;Ibragimova</b> </p> <p> <b>Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University, Moscow, Russian Federation</b> </p> <p> <i>Female sex hormones are of crucial importance for a woman’s life. Almost all women over 40 irrespective of their origin or social status begin to experience physical, psychologic, and emotional problems. Menopause hormone therapy (MHT) is considered the most effective option to improve various symptoms of climacteric syndrome. Non-hormonal treatment can be an alternative to MHT to relieve the symptoms of climacteric symptoms in pre- and postmenopausal women, in particular, in contraindications or reluctance to take MHT. The paper addresses recent findings on the effects of soy isoflavones, </i>β<i>-alanine, tryptophan, and vitamins on tissues and the quality of life of pre- and postmenopausal women. Mense<sup>® </sup>(JC «Akvion»), a biologically active supplement that contains phytoestrogens, vitamins, and amino acids, is characterized by a variety of protective effects in pre- and postmenopausal periods. This biologically active supplement can be recommended for women with the symptoms of climacteric syndrome as a pretreatment during the screening before prescribing MHT, a dietary modification in contraindications or refusal of MHT, and/or an effective component of the complex treatment for climacteric syndrome.</i> </p> <p> <i><b>Keywords</b>: perimenopause, postmenopause, non-hormonal treatment, menopause hormone therapy, vasomotor symptoms, phytoestrogens, vitamins.</i> </p> <p> <i><b>For citation: </b>Saprykina L.V., Narimanova M.R., Ibragimova D.M.
