Natural vs Synthetic Hormones From: Susan (anonymous@obgyn.net) Tue, 10 Aug 1999 19:03:46 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: anonymous@obgyn.net: "pregnancy" Previous message: Audrey: "Menstual cycle" Next in thread: paulette: "Re: Natural vs Synthetic Hormones" Reply: paulette: "Re: Natural vs Synthetic Hormones" Sorry if this has been covered elsehwere, but I've been inundated with the "natural is better" mantra regarding hormones. Is there any truth here? If "natural" is preferred, I understand that Prometrium (micronized progesterone) and Estratab (derived from yams) are "natural" alternatives to Provera and Premarin, respectively. So if your doctor can prescribe the "natural" alternatives, why are online pharmacies advertising their own compounded "natural" hormone formulas? Is this all just marketing? P.S. I know that Prometrium may be preferred over Provera because of the former's HDL ("good cholesterol") benefits.
