differ from synthetic progesterone?
Natural progesterone, a cholesterol derivative, comes from the Mexican yam or soybeans. It matches exactly the chemical formulation of the body’s own progesterone and thus causes no side effects. Manufacturers of synthetic progesterone alter the chemical makeup of progesterone in order to create progestins. Progestins in their altered molecular structure may cause many side effects, such as birth defects or abortion, fluid retention, epilepsy, migraine,asthma, cardiac or kidney dysfunction and depression.
