Red Clover Isoflavones
for Menopausal Symptoms
Phytoestrogen supplements from red clover containing formononetin and biochanin A, used for mild menopausal hot flushes in women who cannot use HRT.
How it works
Red clover isoflavones are converted by gut bacteria to equol and other active phytoestrogens that bind to oestrogen receptors (predominantly ERΞ²), modulating thermoregulatory activity.
What to watch for
Less reliable than HRT. Non-equol producers (~30% of Western populations) may not respond. Avoid if history of hormone-sensitive cancer.
