Creatine for Menopausal Women: What This New Study Means

Creatine is often talked about in the context of gym performance, but newer research is exploring its potential benefits for women in midlife too. A 2025 study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition examined how creatine monohydrate affected body composition, cognition, estrogen, strength, mood, and sleep in peri- and postmenopausal women.

What the study looked at

The study followed 15 women with a mean age of 54, including 5 in perimenopause and 10 in postmenopause, over 14 weeks. Participants also followed a twice-weekly total-body strength training program, and researchers measured body composition, strength, cognitive function, estradiol, mood, and sleep.

What the researchers found

The biggest finding was a significant increase in lower-body strength among the peri- and postmenopausal participants who used creatine. The study also found that perimenopausal women showed improvements in sleep quality.

The researchers did not find significant changes in estradiol levels, and they also reported no significant findings for the non-Humac tests included in the study.

Why this matters

Menopause can come with changes in muscle strength, recovery, sleep, and overall wellbeing. This study adds to the growing conversation around creatine as a practical daily supplement that may support strength and, in some cases, sleep quality during this stage of life. Based on this study, the strongest takeaway is support for strength-related outcomes, not hormone changes.

What this means for Daily Crave Creatine Gummies

This study used creatine monohydrate, which is the same core creatine form commonly used in supplementation research. That matters because it supports the broader case for convenient daily creatine use. At the same time, it is important to be precise: this study was not conducted on Daily Crave Creatine Gummies specifically, and the participants were also doing resistance training during the trial. 

Key takeaway

A new 2025 study suggests creatine supplementation may help support lower-body strength in peri- and postmenopausal women, with possible sleep-quality benefits in perimenopause. For brands in the creatine space, that is a meaningful addition to the evidence base around daily creatine support for women in midlife.

Daily Crave Creatine Gummies offer an easy, consistent way to add creatine monohydrate to your daily wellness routine, especially for women focused on strength, performance, and healthy aging.
