The Claim
In women aged 40–55 with menopausal symptoms, a daily 100 mg dose of Eurycoma longifolia water extract (Physta®) for 12 weeks may reduce overall menopausal symptom scores by approximately 34% from baseline, a reduction significantly greater than the 23% observed with placebo (p=0.049), and specifically improves physical and sexual symptoms.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Women aged 40 to 55 going through menopause who took a daily 100 mg supplement of a plant extract called Eurycoma longifolia for 12 weeks had their menopause symptoms drop by about 34% from the start. That was a bigger drop than the 23% seen in women taking a placebo, and they also felt better physically and sexually.

The natural chemicals in the plant extract are absorbed into the body. They help balance hormones and lower stress chemicals. This reduces body aches, improves sexual health, and boosts mood, making menopause symptoms much better.
