Soy supplements for premenstrual syndrome in women approaching menopause
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether taking phytoestrogens (plant-based compounds that act like estrogen) can reduce premenstrual syndrome symptoms and affect gene expression in healthy women in their 40s and 50s. It may help women who are still having regular periods but are approaching menopause.
