Delay in first delivery and before this arrived, alerted to remind me second delivery due and a charge. Had to chase this up. Staff were helpful.

After a bad start of my order not being delivered, the company managed a delivery by post. So I recommend them.

About The Better Menopause
Written by the company
Founded by women, for women, The Better Menopause provides targeted nutritional supplements for perimenopause and menopause, designed to support the foundations of health that matter most during this transition. We believe women deserve clear, science-led support — not confusion, trends or quick fixes.
Our approach is rooted in the growing understanding of the gut–hormone connection. The gut microbiome plays a central role in regulating oestrogen, metabolism, mood, immunity and inflammation. As hormones fluctuate in midlife, nurturing gut health becomes a key foundation for overall wellbeing. When you support the gut, you support the systems that help you feel balanced and resilient.
We specialise in expert-led formulations, using clinically studied ingredients at effective levels. Our flagship targeted probiotic, Better Gut, was developed specifically for menopause. It supports microbial diversity, digestive comfort and the estrobolome — the gut bacteria involved in oestrogen metabolism. By strengthening these core systems, Better Gut helps women manage many of the common symtoms experienced during perimenopause.
We combine scientific expertise with lived experience, translating complex research into simple daily support. No hype, no exaggerated promises — just thoughtful solutions for this life stage.
Alongside our products, we champion education and honest conversation so women feel informed and empowered. Because a better menopause starts with better foundations.

Both my husband and I are converts and our lives have changed immeasurably for the betterour
After major abdominal surgery in 2019, I had a constant struggle with constipation. That struggle ended when my excellent local pharmacy recommended The Better Gut probiotic.now both my husband and I are converts and our lives have changed immeasurably for the better.

A daily supplement I genuinely love
I’ve been taking Better Gut from The Better Menopause cmpany for well over a year now and I can honestly say I’ve noticed a real difference. The main thing for me has been the improvement in bloating and just generally feeling more comfortable digestion-wise, but I’ve also felt more balanced overall in myself too.
It’s become part of my routine now and definitely one of those products where, if I stop taking it, I notice.

A daily supplement you genuinely love, we could not ask for more than that, thank you so much!
We are so pleased to hear that Better Gut has made such a real difference to your bloating and digestion, and that you are feeling more balanced overall too. And that last point really does say it all, doesn't it, noticing the difference when you stop is one of the most telling signs that something is truly working.
We are so glad it has become part of your daily routine and we hope it continues to support you. We are always here at hello@thebettermenopause.com if you ever need any advice.
No reminder email
Have been receiving reminders on upcoming subscription but didn’t get for this last one. Frustratingly as the email to say order was being dispatched came overnight into Sunday morning, no one was available at the team to cancel this. When I did get hold of the team I was told it was too late and no return was possible.

Having taken a look on our end, we can see that your upcoming charge notification was sent on the evening of Thursday 7th May, ahead of your renewal. We're sorry if this didn't reach you or ended up in another folder, as we want all of our customers to feel fully in control of their subscription.

I’ve been using The Better Gut for…
I’ve been using The Better Gut for three years now and it’s definitely helped my bloating and it’s keeping me regular - I started MJ (GLP-1) a year ago and did not suffer with constipation, something many others complain about - alongside my HRT this is the only supplement I take and recommend it along with their other products to other menopausal women.

Hi Jane,
Three years, this really does mean the world to us, thank you so much!
We are so pleased to hear that Better Gut has made such a positive difference to your bloating and regularity, and how wonderful that it has helped support your gut health alongside your GLP-1 journey too. Constipation is something many women on GLP-1 medication struggle with, so it is really encouraging to hear.
Thank you so much for recommending us to other menopausal women and for your loyalty to the brand
Buyer Beware
Buyer Beware. I’ve tried several probiotics over the years and have had no issues. I thought this might be even better so I gave it a try. I bought 3 months worth. I had constant cramping, horrific GI issues, nausea and I couldn’t sleep. My husband, a GI doctor, didn’t know I was taking it and told me to stop right away. It ruined my work days! When I tried to ask for a refund, I was denied. Customer service flatly denied me and said the product isn’t for everyone. There are better products out there by companies with good reputations like Garden of Life.

Hi Adria,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we are really sorry to hear that you had such a difficult time after taking Better Gut. The symptoms you describe are extremely unusual and not something we have encountered before, and we take feedback like this very seriously.
We are proud to have thousands of customers who find our doctor-developed probiotic really beneficial, and a reaction of this nature is not something we would ever expect. While as with all supplements individual responses can vary, we absolutely want to make this right for you.
Please do reach out to us directly at hello@thebettermenopause.com and a member of our team will look into this straightaway. We would love the opportunity to discuss your experience further and ensure you are not left out of pocket.
Many thanks,
The Better Menopause Team
Sadly my experience with this company…
Sadly my experience with this company has been very poor. I received an email stating that my subscription order had been shipped, leaving me NO time to cancel the subscription or that order.
In fact the email reminder was sent out, monies pending and order ready to ship all in the space of a few hours! Very sneaky not to give the consumer enough time to cancel.
Customer services said they tried to cancel the order but couldn’t.
Yes you could.
And you could have refunded me - you chose not to.
In addition, they do not accept returns for a refund which is very odd when many other companies in their category do.
Very disappointing.
Do better.
Wouldn’t recommend

This is definitely working !
I’ve been suffering with severe bloating during my perimenopause so I thought I would try this product along side my HRT.
I’m only a week into taking them ( hence my 4 stars) but I do think they’re starting to help , so I’m really encouraged to continue with the tablets . Fingers crossed!

Hi Victoria,
Thank you so much for your lovely review and fingers crossed from us too! We are really encouraged to hear that you are already noticing some positive changes after just one week, and we hope that continues.
Bloating is such a common and uncomfortable symptom during perimenopause, and we really do hope Better Gut continues to help. As with any probiotic, results are cumulative over a period of time and your gut microbiome needs time to adapt and change to the introduction of new bacteria, so consistent daily use for at least 12 weeks is where most of our customers really start to notice meaningful change.
We hope that fifth star is on its way! Please do reach out to us at hello@thebettermenopause.com if you would like any further advice, we would love to hear from you.

Hi Tracy,
Thank you so much for this lovely review. It means so much to us that you have been with us for a couple of years and that Better Gut continues to work well for you.
We are also really thrilled to hear that Better Night is already having such a positive impact on your sleep. Disrupted sleep is one of the most common and challenging symptoms of perimenopause and beyond, so we hope you continue to feel the benefits.

Hi Tracey,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review and we are really glad your order arrived safely!
We noticed you mentioned not yet seeing results, and we completely understand that everyone wants to see immediate change with any new regime, but at just over one week in, it really is still very early days, and in the first two weeks in general it is too soon to expect meaningful change.
Your gut microbiome needs time to adapt and change to the introduction of new beneficial bacteria, and consistent daily use for at least 12 weeks is where most of our customers really start to notice the difference, so please do stick with it!
For best results, we recommend taking Better Gut either last thing at night or first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Think of it less as a quick fix and more as a part of your daily routine.
Targeted probiotic support is so important during perimenopause and beyond, and we truly hope you start to feel the benefits soon.
Please do reach out to us at hello@thebettermenopause.com if you would like any further advice, we would love to hear from you.

Probiotics work cumulatively over time and most customers find that consistent daily use for at least 12 weeks is needed to notice meaningful change, so we would encourage you to stick with it.
