Exploring Safety of Soy Consumption and Non-Hormonal Topical Solutions for Menopausal Symptoms
Soy consumption is considered safe with one to two servings being supported as a safe amount, while caution is advised against soy supplements due to unknown concentrations and individual variations in converting soy to phytoestrogen. Topical non-hormonal solutions for menopausal symptoms include lubricants for short-term comfort, with water-based and silicone options, and moisturizers for longer-term vaginal dryness, urinary symptoms, and infections. It is important to choose products without additives like glycerins and parabens, and to consider partner preferences and pH balance for overall effectiveness.
