The beginning of menopause typically occurs 12 months after a woman's last period. With the months or years leading up to that point, women may experience several hormonal changes in their lives.
As a normal ageing cycle for women, it can often be a rather uncomfortable experience for some. Including authentic herbal supplementation into your daily routine can help ease into the menopausal transition without the unwanted side effects.
So, without further ado, here's how Chinese herbal remedies may help a smoother menopausal transition...
When Does the Menopause Start?
This cycle is most commonly found in women aged 45-55, with symptoms lasting anywhere between 7 and 14 years.
Every transition is different, as symptoms may vary from individual to individual.
What are Some Common Symptoms & Early Signs?
When the levels of estrogen decrease in the female body, a variety of symptoms may occur, including...
- Hot flushes
- Irregularity in menstruation
- Decreased sleep quality
- Vaginal pain during intercourse
- Dryness
- Changes in urination
- Mood alterations
- Physical changes (weight gain, weight loss)
What are the Potential Solutions?
Utilising Chinese herbal supplements is a fantastic and sustainable way to naturally assist with the menopausal transition.

Our daily recommended dosage of Chinese herbal supplements is 6 tablets*.
The traditional way of taking these is three tablets, twice a day (morning and evening).
For best results, we recommend taking these with breakfast in the morning and just before bed in the evening.
*We always recommend contacting a consultant prior to starting supplementation, as they will be able to give tailored advice on your personal recommended daily dosage.
How Long Does Each Formula Last For?
Each bottle of Aura contains 60 tablets. Following the recommended daily intake, this will last 10 days when consuming 6 tablets per day to assist your wellbeing goals.
If you have been advised to take a lower dosage by your Chinese medical practitioner, these formulas may last up to 2 weeks.
What's the Concentration Ratio in These Supplements?
Each herbal supplement has been standardised to 5:1, meaning a single bottle of Aura weighs 36g and is equivalent to 180g of raw herbs (for example, if the recommended dosage is 3 tablets twice daily, this provides 3.6g which equates to 18g of raw herbs).
One bottle of Aura herbal supplement is between 7-9x more concentrated than other brands on the market.
All herbs used in the Aura supplement range have been extracted in either water or alcohol to achieve the purest and highest quality end product.
Each formula needs to be decocted differently (colours on the bottle), depending on the chemical components of each herb to produce an authentic product based on the traditional Chinese pharmacopoeia.
When Should I Expect to See Results?
As the age-old saying goes, good things come to those who wait!
With regular supplementation, you should start to see and feel results within 3 months, although this time frame may differ between individuals taking different daily dosages.
