FemmenessencePRO POST (Maca-GO®)

FemmenessencePRO POST contains Maca-GO a concentrated, highly bioavailable, proprietary formulation of Lepidium peruvianum (maca) phenotypes specifically formulated for women to support the hypothalamic - pituitary - thyroid - adrenal - ovarian (HPTAO) axis. FemmenessencePRO POST is the first natural product to demonstrate, in published clinical trials, statistically significant effects on hormones in postmenopausal women by supporting the body’s own production. Clinical results in postmenopausal women showed an 84% success rate in reducing menopausal symptom relief within the first box and statistically significant improvements in endogenous hormones, including estradiol and FSH. After four months in clinical trials, postmenopausal women taking FemmenessencePRO POST had increased bone density, with subsequent improvements in cortical and sub-cortical Z-scores and T-scores, as well as improved lipid profiles.
