That means that the pills have not been determined to be safe or not.
I would stay away from them until more is known about them.
The fact the FDA has not tested them is a red flag.
Femestra may not be unsafe to take, but it also may not do anything to ease her symptoms. A lot of these herbal remedies and nutritional supplements are pretty useless or may not contain enough of the active ingredient to make a difference. Because they are not regulated by the FDA, there is no testing done on these remedies, and the strength of the ingredients could vary from one batch to the next. I would tell your friend to try the remedy if she likes, but don’t expect any miracles.
It’s quack medicine.
Have your friend see her doctor and work treatment out with him.
