Safe, Effective Menopause Relief

"What Alloy Health has started offering its customers is a topical version of sildenafil, which it has branded as Oh-mazing Cream. Containing a percentage that is a fraction of the dose men take, the topical sildenafil, says Molenaar, functions the same way but, unlike its oral predecessor, has no contraindications."

"I've been using [M4 Cream] for about a month and have noticed that my skin just looks less tired—especially at the end of the day. Friends who haven’t seen me in a while also notice a difference without my having told them.”

—Pilar Guzmán, editorial director

"In the information void, a vast menopausal-wellness industry has developed, flush with products that Faubion dismisses as mostly “lotions and potions.” But a new crop of companies has also come to market to provide F.D.A. approved treatments, including hormone therapy. Alloy holds online support groups where women, clearly of varying socioeconomic backgrounds, often vent — about how hard it was for them to find relief, how much they are still suffering or how traumatized they still are by the lack of compassion and concern they encountered when seeking help for distressing symptoms. The space was clearly a no-judgment zone, a place where women could talk about how they personally felt about the risks and benefits of taking hormones."
