Phytoestrogens such as daidzein and genistein are plant-derived substances which have been shown to improve estrogen deficiency symptoms in post-menopausal women.


Menopause refers to the cessation of menstrual period. This normally happens when a woman reaches her 40s. At this stage, ovaries stop producing eggs and the level of estrogen declines.

Despite its prevalence – breast cancer is the most common cancer among women – survival rates have increased. One reason is that advances in mammography have made it possible to detect very small tumors. Smaller tumors are usually easier to treat, less likely to spread to lymph nodes, lungs, or bones, and present a greater chance for breast preservation and cure.
