Menopause has been defined as the time in a woman’s life when her period stops. It is a condition that often attributed to low levels of estrogen production and is related to hot flushes, sweating, insomnia, vaginal dryness, and discomfort. In this study, we examine how the consumption of raw peanut milk affects vaginal pH and uric acid levels among menopausal women.
