Formula Description

This is a well-constructed maintenance formula that addresses the fundamental pathology of menopause from a TCM perspective: the decline of Kidney Yin (and to lesser extent Yang) leading to a loss of control over Liver Yang.

This is a maintenance formula designed to stabilize results and support long-term balance. It focuses primarily on tonifying Kidney Yin.

Geng Nian An 2 (MenoPeace 2) is a symptom relief formula for frequent and/or acute menopausal symptoms. It focuses on Liver and Heart balance in addition to addressing Kidney Yin Deficiency.
