Supplement use among a diverse sample of perimenopausal and menopausal women in rural Hawaiʻi
The prevalence of supplement use among perimenopausal and menopausal women in rural Hawaiʻi is higher than previously published measures of supplement use among similarly aged women in the continental US, the UK, and Canada. In the setting of such widespread use, clinicians caring for this population may consider initiating thoughtful discussions with patients on the risks and benefits of using these products.
