Wild yam is very well known for its steroidal saponsins (chemical constitutes in the plant) contained within particularly diosgein, an important hormonal precursor for progesterone. |
Precursors provide necessary elements or building blocks to produce and balance the hormones progesterone and cortisone. |
Wild yam creams marketed as "natural progesterone", doesn't contain progesterone or dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and cannot be converted to these hormones in the body. It requires a chemical conversion to become USP progesterone that can only take place in the lab. |
