70 women, aged 37-59, were treated with Menonorm and Gotistron (3 cycles with each preparation) in a double-blind survey to determine which medication was more effective in treating menopausal symptoms. Menonorm was preferred to Gotistron for the relief of hot flashes and nervous symptoms. Menonorm brought improvement in hot flashes in 88% of the cases, Gotistron in 73%; these medications brought improvement in nervous symptoms in about 55% of the patients. 27% of the women who took part discontinued the experiment due to side effects, which were mild in 21% of these patients. 80% of the patients experienced some type of side effect. This double-blind study was not considered the best method for indicating which drug was more effective, due to the subjective nature of the patients' symptoms: 40% of the patients had to be excluded from the statistical analysis because of side effects or forgetting to take the medication.
