If you're exploring natural ways to ease menopausal symptoms, royal jelly could offer real relief. Recent research—like a 2025 placebo-controlled trial—found that women aged 45–60 who took 1,000 mg of royal jelly daily for 12 weeks experienced a 35% reduction in hot flashes and night sweats, plus a 30% drop in anxiety and 20% better sleep quality (A Woman's Time).

What Is Royal Jelly?

Produced by nurse bees to feed queen larvae, royal jelly is a nutrient-dense substance rich in proteins, fatty acids, B vitamins, and antioxidants—all believed to support hormone balance and reduce inflammation (Verywell Health).

How Royal Jelly Helps with Menopause

Hormone-Mimicking Effects:Royal jelly contains compounds with mild estrogen-like activity, helping balance hormones and ease symptoms such as hot flashes, sleep disturbances, and emotional swings (MDPI, Verywell Health).

Clinically Proven Symptom Relief:

A small Iranian trial found 800 mg/day eased back pain, anxiety, and physical discomfort within just one month (MDPI).
Larger Japanese clinical evidence supports a 1,000–1,500 mg daily dose reducing vasomotor and cognitive symptoms over 8–12 weeks (A Woman's Time, PubMed).

What the Science Says

While promising, most studies are still small. Results are encouraging—especially for hot flashes, anxiety, sleep quality, and overall wellbeing—but more extensive research is needed to confirm the full range of benefits (A Woman's Time).

How to Use It

Recommended Dose: 1,000–1,500 mg daily, typically taken as a single scoop of royal jelly each morning.
Forms Available:
- Raw royal jelly (keep refrigerated)
- Capsules or softgels (freeze-dried alternatives)
- Topical creams (for skin rejuvenation and dryness)

Safety Tips

Royal jelly is generally safe, but observe caution if you have asthma or allergies to bee products. Always consult your doctor before starting any supplement.
