Abstract

In this study, Winopause has been found to be highly effective in the treatment of menopausal syndrome. There was significant response in hot flushes, irritability, insomnia, palpitation, pruritus valvae and social interaction parameters. This response of Winopause could be due to the presence of phytoestrogens in the formulations. The drug was found to be effective and safe and no adverse effect was observed in any patient.
