How does Equelle work?

Equelle's key ingredient, S-equol, works by safely and naturally mimicking estrogen.

As estrogen declines, menopause symptoms increase. S-equol mimics estrogen in your body to help decrease menopause symptoms.6†

As we age, our bodies gradually produce less of the hormone estrogen.

Estrogen levels fluctuate during perimenopause and ultimately decline to lower levels through postmenopause, which can lead to unwanted symptoms.

S-equol shares a similar molecular structure to estrogen, allowing it to bind to the body’s estrogen receptors and mimic some of the beneficial effects of estrogen.6

Your body has two main types of estrogen receptors, called alpha receptors and beta receptors.

Alpha receptors are primarily in your breast, ovarian, and uterine tissues.

Beta receptors are primarily in places like the lining of your blood vessels and some parts of your brain. 10

Estrogen, and estrogen hormone replacement therapies, bind to both alpha and beta receptors. 6

S-equol has a similar molecular structure to estrogen but mostly binds to beta receptors. 9
