Can anyone confirm this or have information about what she is talking about? Jason- She may be talking about bioidentical hormones. Progesterone does not have the same problems as progestin. Estrogens like estradriol apparently are much better tolerated than Premarin. Krispin Sullivan for years has promoted the tri-estrogen patch- since the bioidentical hormones couldn't be patented, the delivery system was. She came to the conclusion that women need real hormones because she concluded her patients were doing better on bioidentical estrogens than with phytoestrogens or nothing at all. Karen S.
