Does the estriol or progesterone contain wild yam or soy?
A. These hormones for NHR get their start from the wild yam, which is rich in ‘precursor’ molecules easily converted by biochemists into other molecules that are identical in every way to ‘natural’ estrogens, progesterone, testosterone and other hormones” So, even though the estriol and progesterone are derived from ingredients in the wild yam, these ingredients are actually converted to the hormones themselves by a process that occurs in the laboratory. So it would not be correct to say that there is wild yam or soy in the Estrogen or progesterone creme. Dr Lee explained that wild yams are very rich in cholesterol, and hormones are derived from cholesterol. We naturally make hormones from the cholesterol in our bodies (a reason why many very thin women have a hard time producing enough hormones) In the same way, a chemist can add enzymes to the cholesterol and bring about the conversion to specific hormones in a test tube.
