Why creatine matters for cognitive function during menopause

During menopause, falling oestrogen levels affect how the brain uses energy.

Many women notice:

• Brain fog

• Slower recall

• Reduced mental stamina

• Difficulty concentrating, especially when tired or stressed The brain is one of the most energy-demanding organs in the body.

Creatine plays a direct role in cellular energy production, helping regenerate ATP — the “fuel” brain cells use to function efficiently.

As hormone levels change:

• Brain energy metabolism becomes less efficient

• Neurons can fatigue more quickly

• Mental clarity and resilience may decline

Creatine helps by:

• Supporting brain energy availability

• Helping neurons maintain performance during mental stress

• Supporting cognitive endurance, focus, and mental clarity Importantly, creatine is not a stimulant.

It doesn’t “wire you up” — instead, it supports the brain’s natural energy systems, which is why many women report clearer thinking without jitters or sleep disruption.
