Abstract
Background and Objective: Somatic and psychological altrations during menopause have negative impact on quality of life. This study was done to evaluate the effect of Aphrodit on somatic symptoms in postmenopausal women.

Somatic symptoms of menopause (including hot flashes, night sweats and tachycardia) and sleep disorder and muscluskeletal disorder were evaluated using Menopause Rating Scale. Results: After intervention, the mean of hot flash score in interventional and control groups was 1.29±0.1 and 3.1±0.6 (P<0.05).The mean of sleep disorder score in interventional group and controls was 1.82±0.2 and 2.82±3.1 (P<0.05). The mean of muscluskeletal disorder score in interventional group and controls was 1.03±0.1 and 2.81±1.2 (P<0.05).There was no diference in the heart problem score between interventional and control groups. Conclusion: Consumption of Aphrodit capsule reduces hot flash, sleep disorder and muscluskeletal disorder in postmenopausal women.
