Last updated on May 15th, 2025 at 01:02 pm

When choosing dietary supplements to balance hormones, it’s important to remember that not all women’s health supplements are created equal. The vitamins to balance female hormones depend on what stage of life you’re in. For example, older women will need more bone health and menopausal support, while younger women may require more menstrual symptom support. The good news is that Metagenics© can help! Keep reading to learn about the best natural supplements from the new science-backed Metagenics HerWellness™ supplement brand to balance female hormones, so you can start feeling your best today.* 

What are the nutritional needs of each life stage for females?

Depending on your life stage, females will require different supplements to balance hormones. For example, vitamins to balance hormones for females who are still experiencing their menstrual cycle include iodine and selenium, whose deficiencies can cause hormonal imbalances. (Source 1) Also, recent studies show that vitamin B6, calcium, and zinc can help manage the psychological symptoms of premenstrual syndrome. (2)

Meanwhile, vitamins to balance hormones for females who are menopausal or post-menopausal include vitamin E as well as omega-3 fatty acids (3, 4). Both of these compounds provide antioxidant benefits that help to reduce cell damage and inflammation in the body, which can help reduce risks of chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and osteoporosis, which are common in women during this life stage.

Which is the best natural supplement to balance female hormones? Lucky for you, Metagenics HerWellness supplements are available from Simply Nutrients in a variety of special formulas designed to balance female hormones during each major life stage. 

Menstrual Symptom Relief

For those still having a period, you can reach for Metagenics HerWellness Naturally Balanced, which targets PMS symptoms like irritability, fatigue, bloating, sleep, and cravings.*  This supplement contains compounds like saffron, which shows the potential to improve mood and sleep as well as reduce tension that can lead to headaches. (6) Meanwhile, chromium picolinate can help support body composition management, and licorice root extract can help reduce digestive discomfort in around 15 days. (7, 8)

A similar product is Metagenics HerWellness Rapid Period Relief, which contains compounds like black sesame seed oil and turmeric rhizome extract that offer anti-inflammatory properties that research shows may help reduce premenstrual and menstrual cramps. (9, 10) Meanwhile, research shows that frankincense may help manage symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding. (11) And let’s not forget the addition of green tea extract and saffron that provide antioxidants for overall health support. 

Perimenopausal or Menopausal Symptom Relief

For women experiencing perimenopause or menopause, Metagenics HerWellness Estrovera can help relieve uncomfortable symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, anxiety, vaginal dryness, and headaches in just one to four weeks.*†  It does this through natural ingredients like rhapontic rhubarb root extract. Research shows that this extract, as an alternative or supplement to hormone therapy, can reduce the severity of menopausal symptoms like hot flushes and in turn improve quality of life, overall wellness, and hormone balance. (12)

Stress Relief and Relaxation

Sleep disturbances due to a poor diet, aging, or stress are quite common. For any age, females can enjoy Metagenics HerWellness Recharge Overnight to help manage stress, support overall wellbeing, and encourage better sleep. Ingredients like vitamin C, green tea extract, saffron, and zinc provide antioxidant support to help reduce inflammation in the body and mind.*(13) Along with this, magnesium and holy basil are clinically studied compounds known to help reduce perceived stress as well as the risk of depression, mood swings, and in turn may improve sleep. (14, 15) 

For similar benefits, Metagenics HerWellness Rapid Stress Relief can also relax your body and mind through a formula containing L-theanine and antioxidants like green tea extract and saffron.* A 2025 study shows that L-theanine may increase alpha waves in the brain associated with relaxation, which can help reduce stress and anxiety, in turn improving sleep quality.
