Replacement For Replacement Therapy
Millions of women face acute menopausal symptoms every year-but new products and new strategies now offer safer alternatives for relief than the high-risk traditional hormone replacement therapies.

Production of estrogen diminishes sharply at age 50, the average age of menopause. Symptoms include mood swings, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, headaches, and loss of libido. Osteoporosis (weakening of bone density leading to bone fracture) is a long-term result of poorly managed menopause.

Conventional practice prescribes synthetic hormone replacement, but such therapy poses significant health threats, including increased risk of endometriosis, breast cancer, bloating, weight gain, blood sugar imbalances, and thyroid disturbances. Furthermore, the effectiveness of estrogen replacement therapy in reducing heart disease and osteoporosis has been seriously questioned.

Progesterone, a sex hormone of at least equal importance as estrogen, has received far less attention, even though its production decreases as precipitously as estrogen. In recent years synthetic progesterone has been used in conjunction with estrogen replacement therapy, but the natural form used alone has proved to be safe and more effective in reducing symptoms. Natural progesterone is derived from plant sources, including the Mexican wild yam. Products containing natural progesterone are available without prescription and are usually prepared in a skin cream base, delivering the progesterone transdermally (through the skin). Side effects are positive rather than negative, and even include relief from PMS (cramping, food cravings, mood swings) in younger women.

Use of these preparations exploded in the last two years, with women reporting first-hand experiences of symptom relief, partly because of a popular book (Hormone Replacement Therapy: Yes or No by Dr. Betty Kamen),which explores safe alternatives. Clinical trials back up the enthusiasm, demonstrating natural progesterone’s advantages over synthetic hormones.

The newest skin cream products take safety and natural action one step further. In addition to progesterone itself, products like Yamcon contain one of the natural precursors of progesterone, diosgenin, plus a few other natural substances-long known to help balance hormones.

There is little question of the safety of Yamcon and similar products. Reports from users indicate that Yamcon provides the benefits of estrogen replacement therapy with virtually none of the risks.
