Abstract
The article presents the results of studying the effect of red clover extract (Feminal®) pulse wave velocity in women with menopausal syndrome periand postmenopause. The results obtained allow us to conclude that therapy with red clover extract is effective for treating moderately severe COP, and has a significant effect on the speed of the pulse wave.
