Study Finds Respecta Supplement May Alleviate Postmenopausal Pain
Tibolone and Respecta—a blend of Lactobacilli and bovine lactoferrin—could support women facing pain in post-menopause, according to new research.

Lactobacilli and lactoferrin are also effective in treating vaginal microbiota dysbiosis. In the latest study, after 90 days of taking Respecta, women experienced a “statistically significant” decrease in their Visual Analog Scale for vulvar burning/pain and reduction in pain evaluation test scores. “This study provides evidence that the combination of TIB+ Respecta was effective in reducing symptoms related to vestibular pain and hypersensitivity in a postmenopausal setting,” the authors wrote in the journal Nutrients.
