Some of the health issues that can be more common in women include obesity, cardiovascular disease and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as well as issues specific to women like the menopause, endometriosis and menstrual cramps.

Fortunately, supplements offer several benefits for many of these health conditions. Dietary supplements can help alleviate the symptoms of menopause caused by nutritional deficiencies. Probiotics can assist in regulating the immune system, reducing inflammation, and easing the symptoms related to endometriosis. Magnesium supplements may be helpful in reducing the discomfort and pain associated with menstrual cramps. Prenatal supplements containing folic acid, iron and other essential nutrients can provide support for a healthy pregnancy.

There are many supplements designed specifically for women’s health concerns. Women are often at higher risk for iron deficiency, which can lead to anaemia, so look out for those containing this mineral. Women are also at higher risk for osteoporosis, a condition that weakens bones and makes them more prone to fracture, so calcium supplements are a great choice for maintaining bone health. While not specific to women’s health, vitamin D is essential for strong bones and a healthy immune system. Omega-3 has anti-inflammatory properties and can help reduce the risk of heart disease, as well as symptoms associated with menstrual cramps and joint pain.

Many supplements for women’s health are safe to take when pregnant. However, there are certain ingredients that are advised against, such as high levels of vitamin A, caffeine and ginseng. If you are planning to take any supplements, we recommend speaking to your midwife or GP to ensure they are safe to take when pregnant or breastfeeding.
