| One of the characteristics of menopause is that symptoms tend to come and go, once a problem goes, another comes to take its place. Normally, menopause begins when a woman is in her 40s and it will last until the age of 60. Depending on overall health, diet and lifestyle, the whole transitional period can take 20 years to finish. The lingering nature of menopause is partly due to inadequate long-term management. Chinese patent remedies provide general tonifying effects for a woman’s health; they promote internal harmony and empower the body to respond to stresses occurring at this time. They can also reduce some of the long-term health risks after menopause such as osteoporosis or heart disease.
