Conclusion of Our Remifemin Menopause Relief Review
Remifemin Menopause Relief seems to be a good product. It only contains one natural ingredient, which has been proven to be effective in a number of clinical studies. It has also garnered many customer reviews, the majority of which (77% at the time of writing) are positive (with 16% negative). However, Remifemin seems to have more warnings and possible side effects than other natural menopause supplements. This could be a result of only using Black Cohosh Root in its formula. There is also a lack of a money-back guarantee which prevents a new customer from trying it risk-free.
