What is the difference between Natural Hormones and Synthetic Hormones?
Natural hormones means that these hormones are chemically the same as the ones the human body produces. They are also called “bio-identical”. Synthetic hormones refer to those manufactured with a chemical structure that is foreign to the human body but mimics some hormonal activity. An example of natural hormones would be Estriol, Progesterone, Testosterone, and DHEA. An example of synthetic hormones would be Premarin, Prempro, Climara, Estratest, Estratab, and all birth control pills.
