Can Femarelle® cause undesirable side effects?
​
Femarelle® has been available since the year 2000 with more than 8.5 Million months of use, and, to date, no significant adverse reactions have been reported. However, each of us can have a different reaction to anything we consume. If you experience side effects, we advise you to consult your physician. Note that Femarelle® contains soy.
​
Can I combine Femarelle® with other products?
​
If you have any specific questions regarding the possible interaction with your medication or supplements, we advise you to consult your healthcare practitioner.
​
How often should Femarelle® be taken?
​
Femarelle® should be taken twice daily, one capsule in the morning and one in the evening; it can be taken with or without food.
​
Can the dosage be increased?
​
We have seen that, in some women, an increase of the dosage to three capsules per day, taking two when the relief is most needed, has been shown to be beneficial. Therefore, if the symptoms are stronger during the day, two capsules should be taken in the morning and one in the evening, for a week, and, if the symptoms are more difficult at night, the morning dose should remain at one capsule with the increased dosage taken in the evening. There is no risk in taking a larger dose, and the dosage can be reduced back to two capsules a day once improvement in the symptoms is felt. Please note that it is crucial that Femarelle® be taken twice a day regardless of the dosage.
​
Is Femarelle® an estrogen or hormone?
​
Femarelle® is not an estrogen or hormone. It is a natural dietary supplement made from a proprietary tofu extract, flax and vitamins.
Does Femarelle® contain gluten?
​
No, Femarelle® is a gluten-free product.
Does Femarelle® contain glucose?
​
No, Femarelle® does not contain glucose.
​
Is it possible to open the Femarelle® capsule and take only the content with water?
​
The capsule protects the active ingredient from the high acidity of the stomach, which may destroy it, so we recommend not opening the capsules. However, if taking the powder alone relieves your symptoms, you may continue taking Femarelle® this way.
​
Is the dosage effective regardless of weight?
​
Two capsules per day have been found to be effective for most women; however, if you need to increase the dosage, you may do so according to the time of the day that you suffer most, without risk (see answer to CAN THE DOSAGE BE INCREASED?).
What should be done if a dose is missed?
​
If a dose is missed, the capsule should be taken as soon as possible, and the regular schedule should then be resumed. There is no need to take a double dose to make up for a missed dose.
When and how long should Femarelle® be taken?
​
Femarelle® is a dietary supplement that can be taken safely for the long term to enhance women’s well-being in the post reproductive stage of their lives. The longer you take Femarelle®, the longer it will support your daily life.

Is there a difference between Femarelle® and Isoflavones?
​
Femarelle® is not an isoflavones extract. The manufacturing process does not isolate any single component from the soybean, which is done with isoflavone-based products, but uses a proprietary process that forms a unique and stable supplement that was proven, through numerous published studies, to bring relief of symptoms while supporting women from anti-aging to healthy-aging.
