When it comes to menopause, it can be a difficult time for women in a number of ways, including changes in mood, inflammation, sleep disturbances and digestive issues. According to The Better Menopause, eight in 10 women report experiencing bloating and IBS-like symptoms that last through perimenopause and well after menopause, too.
Now, however, there are an increasing number of supplements out there to help with these symptoms, including the brand The Better Menopause. This brand offers science-backed supplements formulated for women by women and focuses on the gut-hormone connection as it addresses the root of symptoms.
Better Gut helps support a balanced estrobolome to help regulate oestrogen, which manages menopause symptoms like hot flushes, brain fog, IBS, low mood and other issues.

A balanced microbiome enhances digestion and absorption, which promotes better immunity, skin, hair and nails. Our Better Night supplement supports high-quality restoration and sleep, plus reduces night sweats, and is more easily absorbed into a healthy, high-functioning gut.
Supplements available from the brand include Better Night, which is a probiotic formulated to optimise gut health and target the root cause of menopause symptoms for £53.10 for a four-week supply. Each daily capsule delivers 50 billion CFUs (live bacteria) straight to the gut, in doses high enough to provide optimal support.
And shoppers can also get an extra 30% off their first payment cycle on any subscription purchase with the code REACH30 from The Better Menopause and the code expires on 31/08/2025.
Another option is Better Night for £43.20 for a four-week supply, which is specially formulated to help shoppers relax, unwind and recharge. It combines essential vitamins and calming botanicals to support a better night's rest and overall well-being. The blend combines ingredients such as Ashwagandha KSM-66, Saffron Affron, Magnesium Glycinate, Lemon Balm, Montmorency Cherry, Chamomile, plus Vitamins B6, B12 and D3.
Lastly, Better Metabolism, for £51.30 for a four-week supply, is a natural supplement designed to help support women with metabolic function, blood-sugar regulation, cravings, and energy levels during perimenopause and beyond. This supplement contains a blend of ingredients, including Berberine, Myo-Inositol, cinnamon, Cinnasil, and chromium picolinate.
Elsewhere, Lookfantastic stocks Myvitamins Menosure 60 capsules for £9.99. They include 10 essential nutrients and naturally sourced extracts, such as vitamin B6 to maintain normal hormonal function, vitamin B12 to support brain health, and biotin to support energy. Another option is A Vogel Menopause Support 60 for £14.58 from Your Health Store, which can help with tiredness and fatigue.
The Better Menopause supplements have been rated highly; for example, Better Gut has a 4.7 out of 5-star rating on its website. One shopper said: "I had been looking at a lot of different probiotics, but this one seemed to be the best suited to my peri menopause symptoms, so I gave it a try. I’ve only been on it for five weeks, but I already notice that I am a lot less bloated and my digestion is feeling better. Sleep is getting better also. I was having gut issues last year and wish I had found these sooner.

"I have been using the Better Gut for a year now, and it has really helped with my bloating. I really recommend it," said another.
"Still early days, but I definitely feel better. I have been taking Better Gut for two weeks and am looking forward to seeing how much better I will feel after the third month. I would definitely recommend this product," another shopper said.
Others disagreed, however, as one person said: "It took away my mood, but I still slept two hours or three, wish I could sleep all night."
Another said: "No difference so far."
Shoppers can get supplements on The Better Menopause website.
