Femarin by Ortho Molecular Products – Menopausal Hormone Balance Support
Femarin by Ortho Molecular Products is a targeted botanical blend formulated to support women through the hormonal shifts of perimenopause and menopause. Each capsule combines five well-studied plant-based ingredients — gamma oryzanol, black cohosh root extract, dong quai root extract, licorice root extract, and trans-resveratrol — in therapeutic doses intended to help maintain hormonal balance while also supporting cardiovascular and bone health during this transition.
The menstrual cycle typically winds down in a woman's late 40s or early 50s, and the accompanying shifts can be disruptive enough to affect daily comfort and well-being. Femarin's formula is designed to address several needs at once: hormonal balance, healthy inflammatory response, antioxidant support, and cardiovascular and bone support, giving women a broad-spectrum option to consider alongside guidance from a healthcare practitioner.
Key Femarin Benefits
- Helps maintain healthy hormone balance during perimenopause and menopause
- Supports a normal, balanced inflammatory response
- Provides antioxidant support during the menopausal transition
- Supports cardiovascular health as estrogen levels shift
- Supports bone health during perimenopause and menopause
How Femarin Works
Femarin combines botanicals that have each been studied individually for their role in women's midlife health. Black cohosh root extract has long been studied for its hormone-balancing activity during perimenopause and menopause. Dong quai root extract, sometimes called the "woman's herb," has traditionally been used to support a regular, healthy menstrual cycle and to ease common menopausal complaints. Licorice root extract contains glycyrrhizin and phytoestrogenic compounds that may help modulate estrogen receptor activity, while gamma oryzanol, a compound derived from rice bran oil, has been studied since the 1960s for its role in comfort during the menopausal transition. Trans-resveratrol, a polyphenol found in grapes, rounds out the formula with antioxidant activity that supports cellular health and helps maintain a normal inflammatory response, giving the formula both hormonal and broader systemic support.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Black Cohosh Root Extract (standardized to 2% triterpene glycosides): Studied for hormone-balancing support during perimenopause and menopause — a 2025 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial found black cohosh-containing formulas helped support menopausal symptom management.
- Dong Quai Root Extract: Traditionally used to support a healthy menstrual cycle and ease menopausal discomfort.
- Chinese Licorice Root Extract (standardized to 12% glycyrrhizin): Contains phytoestrogenic compounds studied for estrogen receptor-modulating activity.
- Gamma Oryzanol: A rice bran oil-derived compound studied since the early 1960s for menopausal comfort.
- trans-Resveratrol (from Polygonum cuspidatum roots): A polyphenol antioxidant — a 2023 clinical trial found resveratrol supported bone turnover markers in postmenopausal women.
Femarin Is Formulated For
- Women navigating perimenopause or menopause who want botanical hormone-balance support
- Those seeking antioxidant and cardiovascular support during midlife hormonal shifts
- Women interested in bone-supportive nutrients as part of a menopause wellness routine
