A soy-derived compound, DT56a, eases menopausal symptoms without synthetic hormones in early trials, but long-term safety remains unclear.
A plant-based compound called DT56a, sold as Femarelle and derived from soy, is showing promise in early studies for easing menopausal symptoms like hot flashes without synthetic hormones.
It acts on estrogen receptors in a tissue-selective way, potentially reducing symptoms and supporting bone health while avoiding stimulation of breast or uterine tissue, according to limited trials.
No serious safety concerns have emerged, but research remains small and short-term, so long-term effects on heart health, fractures, or cancer are unknown.
It is not a cure, may take weeks to work, and should be used under medical guidance, especially for women with a history of estrogen-sensitive conditions.
