The women’s health and beauty supplement market is exploding. That’s good news for
women who want support with
menopause symptoms,
sexual health, beauty boosters and other women-specific health needs.
It's probably not surprising to learn that women make the majority of health decisions in the US. Additionally,
research shows that women see doctors more often and are generally more concerned with their health than men.
That concern and focus likely influenced the growth of the global women's health and beauty supplement market,
valued at $53.4 billion in 2022 (yes, billion) and expected to soar to $83.42 billion by 2030.
Data from the CDC found that supplement use increased with age, especially among women 60 and over, with 80% of those surveyed reporting that they've dabbled in health supplements.
New supplement products target once-taboo subjects such as
perimenopause,
menopause,
gastrointestinal health and female
sexual pleasure and enhancement. Many supplement formulations also focus on active aging, beauty and overall vitality. While the expansion and variety of supplements that address the unique needs of women is great news, it's important to consult with a health professional before you start taking one.
Here are 10 unique, innovative supplements targeted explicitly for women for you to check out:
