How are bio-identical or “natural” hormones different from synthetic hormones, like Premarin?
top Natural (or “bio-identical”) hormones are identical in their molecular structure to the hormones found in your body. Synthetic hormones ARE NOT identical to the hormones found in your body. This difference affects the way that the hormones interact with your tissues as well as other hormones in your body. This can have wide ranging side effects, influencing the interaction, potency, and elimination of the hormones.
