Menopause support that grows with you

Cross-sectional customer survey
89%
effective for established users
56%
very effective at 2+ years
We analysed individual responses from 978 women using MenoFriend®, comparing effectiveness across how long they had been taking it.
The results?
82.6% rated MenoFriend® effective overall, rising to 88.7% among established users of two months or more. Effectiveness climbed steadily with duration. Due to UK regulations relating to menopause, menopause symptom-level results of this study are available to consumers only via a healthcare professional at DR.VEGAN® Professionals.
88.7% of established users found it effective.
Steady, non-hormonal support through the transition.
It builds with duration
Very-effective ratings rose from 15% to 56% over two years of use.
The longer you take MenoFriend®, the more women feel its benefit - give it at least three months.
Why patience pays
Only 9% of established users reported no improvement, versus 13% across all users.
Short-term users are far more likely to under-rate it simply because they haven't taken it long enough.
Hair Health
Stronger, healthier hair with consistent use
Hair Saviour® is a comprehensive blend of clinically studied vitamins, minerals and botanicals, formulated to support hair strength, growth, condition and thickness - for those who commit to consistent daily use.
76 respondents (from 194 surveyed)
2024-2025
Cross-sectional customer survey
87%
saw improvement in 1+ area
We surveyed 76 customers who had taken Hair Saviour® daily for two months or more - long enough to reflect the hair-growth cycle - tracking strength, growth, condition and thickness.
The results?
78.9% rated Hair Saviour® effective. 86.8% noticed improvement in at least one area - most often hair strength (68.4%) and condition (60.5%) - and 54.7% reported new hair growth. Notably, not one person who saw a physical hair improvement rated the product 'not at all effective'.
Strength and condition first
68.4% saw stronger hair and 60.5% better condition.
The two most consistently reported improvements across users.
New growth is achievable
54.7% reported new hair growth.
A meaningful result, since new growth is the slowest hair benefit to appear.
Consistency is everything
Most users saw results between 4 and 8 weeks - some longer.
Hair works to its own cycle, so daily use for at least 2-3 months gives it the best chance.
