Have a known sensitivity, intolerability, or allergy to any of the study products or their excipients. 6. Received a vaccine for COVID-19 in the two weeks prior to screening or during the study period, current COVID-19 infections, or currently have the post COVID-19 condition as defined by World Health Organization (WHO) (i.e., individuals with a history of probable or confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, usually three months from the onset of COVID-19 with symptoms that last for at least two months and cannot be explained by an alternative diagnosis). 7. Have a positive medical history of heart disease, renal disease, hepatic impairment, or active systemic infection (e.g., lyme disease, TB, HIV). 8. Have uncontrolled high blood pressure (=160 mmHg systolic or =100 mmHg diastolic) or thyroid disease, defined as not taking a stable dose of medication on the current regimen for a minimum of three months. 9. Have diabetes (Type I or Type II). 10. History of cancer (except localized skin cancer without metastases) within five (5) years prior to screening. Note: all women with breast cancer (active or any history) will be excluded. 11. History of any clinically significant disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, may either put the potential subject at risk because of participation in the study, or influence the results or the potential subject's ability to participate in the study. 12. History or presence of gastrointestinal, hepatic or renal disease, or any other condition known to interfere with absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of drugs (i.e., Crohn's disease, short bowel, acute or chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic insufficiency). 13. Active vaginal infections/abnormalities (e.g., active urinary tract infection (UTI), genital hemorrhage of unknown origin, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)). Note: screened participants with infections would be eligible to participate four weeks after completing their treatment (wash-out period). 14. Participant has an abnormality or obstruction of the gastrointestinal tract precluding swallowing (e.g., dysphagia) and digestion (e.g., known intestinal malabsorption, celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease, chronic pancreatitis, steatorrhea). 15. Major surgery in three months prior to screening or planned major surgery during the study. 16. History of a surgical procedure for the treatment of obesity (e.g., gastric bypass, gastric banding). 17. History of alcohol or substance abuse. 18. Receipt or use of test product(s) in another research study within 28 days prior to the baseline visit (Day 1), or longer if the previous test product is deemed by the investigator to have lasting effects that might influence the eligibility criteria or outcomes of current study. 19. Use of any vaginal medications, rinses, moisturizers, cooling devices, cooling mattresses, cooling sprays, or patches purposed for hot flash control (i.e., V-cool patch, estrogen cream, etc.) one week before and during study. 20. Current or previous smoker in the last 3 years. 21. Any other active or unstable medical conditions or use of medications/supplements/ therapies that, in the opinion of the investigator, may adversely affect the participant's ability to complete the study or its measures or pose a significant risk to the participant. |

Other | To assess the safety and tolerability of the TP compared to the placebo in healthy participants. | Reports of adverse events (AEs). | 12 weeks | |
Primary | To determine the effects of the Test Product (TP) compared to placebo on hot flash symptoms as determined by the Hot Flash Related Daily Interference Scale (HFRDIS). | Change from baseline for the number and severity of hot flashes measured by HFRDIS scores.
The HFRDIS has a scoring range of 0-100, with higher values indicating worse symptoms. |
12 weeks | |
Secondary | To determine the effect of the TP compared to the placebo on overall menopausal symptoms as determined by the Greene Climacteric Scale (GCS). | Change from baseline in GCS scores.
The GCS has 3 sub-domains for scoring. The psychological sub-domain has a scoring range from 0-33, the physical sub-domain has a scoring range from 0-21, and the vasomotor sub-domain has a scoring range from 0-6. Higher values indicate worse symptoms in all 3 sub-domains. |
12 weeks | |
Secondary | To determine the effect of the TP compared to the placebo on overall menopausal symptoms as determined by the Menopausal Rating Scale (MRS). | Change from baseline in MRS scores.
The MRS has a scoring range of 0-44, with higher values indicating worse symptoms. |
12 weeks | |
Secondary | To determine the effect of the TP compared to the placebo on sleep quality as determined by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). | Change from baseline in PSQI scores.
The PSQI has a scoring range of 0-21, with higher values indicating worse symptoms. |
12 weeks | |
Secondary | To determine the effect of the TP compared to the placebo on quality of life as determined by the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life (MENQOL) questionnaire. | Change from baseline in MENQOL scores.
The MRS has a scoring range of 0-174, with higher values indicating worse symptoms. |
