While hot flushes and insomnia are normalised symptoms of menopause, poor bladder health remains a taboo subject not often discussed.
Bladder weakness often begins during menopause, the female body’s decreasing oestrogen levels result in muscle mass loss which can impact the pelvic floor muscles.
This leads to reduced bladder elasticity and decreased capacity, resulting in more frequent and urgent trips to the bathroom.

How Jude works
Jude Bladder Strength Supplements use two core ingredients to help combat weak bladder issues that many menopausal women experience.
Each contains 540mg of Pumpkin Seed Extract and 30.8mg of Soy Phytoestrogen, which claim to help naturally improve bladder strength.
Pumpkin seeds contain protein, zinc and magnesium which aid muscle growth and repair and plenty of antioxidants, which can help reduce inflammation in the body.
The Soy phytoestrogens in mimic naturally occurring oestrogen to help keep hormone levels balanced, which tend to drop as women age.
The Soy phytoestrogens also help keep the tissue lining of your bladder healthy and strong and support your muscles.

What is the menopause and what age does it usually start?
Menopause is a natural part of ageing, which usually happens when a woman is between the age of 45 and 55.
In the UK, the average age for a woman to go through menopause is 51.
It occurs when oestrogen levels in the body start to decline.
During this time periods become less frequent or they can suddenly stop, and after menopause occurs women will be unable to become pregnant naturally.
Around one in 100 women experience menopause before the age of 40, and this is known as premature ovarian insufficiency or premature menopause.
Many celebrities have spoken out about their own experiences, including Lisa Snowdon, Davina McCall, Michelle Heaton and Zoe Hardman.

- Hot flushes

- Difficulty in sleeping
- Anxiety and loss of confidence
- Low mood, irritability and depression
