How are natural estrogen and progesterone produced?
Precursors (sterols) to progesterone and estrogen are found in wild yams and soy but the human body does not have the ability to convert these sterols to hormones. Through a simple process (hydrolysis) these chemicals are converted into Bio-identical Progesterone, Estriol, Estrone, Estradiol and Testosterone. They are considered “natural” because they are identical to the hormones biologically made in the body and because they are derived from a natural supply. These hormones are then formulated by American Hormones, a specialty compounding pharmacy, into a strength and dosage form recommended by your physician. Your body processes these hormones int he same manner it would those biologically produced.
