PUROGYN Omega 3 vegan combines sustainability, safety and maximum effectiveness – as a gentle, plant-based alternative to fish oil.
The effect is scientifically proven:
- DHA and EPA contribute to normal heart function.
- DHA supports normal brain function and the maintenance of vision.
The positive effects occur with a daily intake of 250 mg each of DHA and EPA.

Omega-3 is particularly important in women’s life phases
From the first menstruation to the desire to have children and pregnancy to the menopause – Purogyn Omega 3 vegan is a valuable companion for all phases of life. It strengthens the heart, brain, and nerves, supports emotional balance, and provides security – sustainable, plant-based, and highly effective.
A woman's needs change throughout her life – and omega-3 fatty acids can make a crucial contribution in each of these phases:
PMS
- Supports menstrual problems
- Supports normal brain and heart function*
- Contributes to general emotional well-being
desire to have children
- According to studies, important for egg quality and hormone balance
- Supports normal heart function*
- Promotes important foundations for healthy conception (generally formulated)
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
- DHA contributes to the normal development of the brain and eyes in the fetus and breastfed infant*
- Supports the mother's heart and circulatory function*
- Important for emotional well-being
Perimenopause
- According to studies, it is important for hormonal fluctuations and mood
- Supports normal heart function*
- Contributes to general well-being
menopause
- EPA and DHA contribute to normal heart function*
- DHA supports normal brain and vision function*
- According to studies, relevant for bone and vascular health
