How to Balance your Hormones
WHAT ARE HORMONES?
Hormones are chemical messengers created by your endocrine system and delivered via the bloodstream to your organs to facilitate normal healthy functions.
When we speak of balanced hormones, we are addressing our Adrenal cortex hormones (or Sex hormones) which are produced in a 'cascade' or 'chain' of subsequent hormones, with one hormone precursing the next as required, which flow in a multiple pathway and complex sequence to meet the many intricate and varying emotional, physical and reproductive needs at any given time of a normal healthy female.
WHAT CAUSES HORMONAL IMBALANCES?
Our complex hormonal system can easily be disrupted by design or pollution.
We disrupt our cyclic function intentionally with the contraceptive pill to avoid pregnancy by confusing the body with synthesised hormones (artificial), and we are all exposed to many 'zeno' or 'mimic' oestrogens found in chemicals of all descriptions, food preservatives, cleansing chemicals, plastics, formaldehyde and many other man made substances that pollute our food chain and our environment.
It has been revealed that mimic oestrogens occupy our oestrogen receptors but play no active role, thus causing hormonal imbalances. Synthesised hormones found in the pill are the cause of intentional hormone imbalances and other artificial hormone treatments attempt to boost hormones by introducing an artificial hormones within the complex natural flow.
The prevalence of PMS, PMT and the trauma of Menopause for many women in our western society is identified as a result of these disruptions to our normal healthy hormone production.
Substitute hormones may be convenient and help you feel good in the short term, but time has revealed that there is a very real potential for serious repercussions when we disrupt our normal healthy production by introducing artificial hormones into the complex cascade of our own natural hormones.
HOW CAN WE BALANCE OUR HORMONES?
In an ideal World we would find the necessary nutrients in our food chain, however we need to supplement in order to achieve a healthy supply of cholesterol which is the natural precursor to our Adrenal cortex hormones, precursing Pregnenolone, thence DHEA, Progesterone, Oestrogen, Testosterone and so on down the chain, via complex multiple pathways.
A most convenient way to achieve this result is to use a good quality Wild Yam Cream which has the potential to do this by delivering its natural ingredients transdermally through the skin into your the blood stream, which then parks the ative ingredients in the nearest fatty tissue (our natural storage facility) for use by your endocrine system as required for your natural hormone production to meet your body's emotional and physical and reproductive needs.
As a result you will then enjoy a naturally balanced production of your hormones, with their many subtle benefits combining to deliver a sense of wellbeing which some women describe as 'euphoric'.
However not all wild yam creams are created equal.
The potency levels required and bio-available efficiency of the active ingredients used are not fully understood, consequently many wild yam creams have proved less than effective, leaving many women disappointed.
DO NOT BE MISLED BY DIS-INFORMATION OR MISINFORMATION ABOUT WILD YAM CREAMS!
There is a lot of misleading information about yam creams right here on the web, let us help you to dispel many of them.

WILD YAM CREAMS DON'T WORK?
There are WYC's as we have outlined above that can't work, or will not work effectively as their manufacturers do not ensure sufficient potency and bio-availability of ingredients required for them to function effectively - most just don't seem to understand how they work at all! |
| • |
THERE IS NO PROOF WILD YAM CREAMS WORK!
Any successful research undertaken on Natural products must also be approved by the medical authorities, who most often conveniently for them, refuse to recognise any such valid research that may compete with pharmaceutical drugs. |

Several hundred thousand women have been most satisfied with the results they have achieved with our cream. It may be anecdotal evidence, but it is very real to the women concerned. It is most likely that you will have learned of Anna's by a satisfied user.

DIOSGENIN is the active ingredient of wild yam, and is a powerful Steroid which is responsible for the production of Pregnenolone which is the precursor to ALL our adrenal cortex (sex) hormones. |
| • |
DIOSGENIN DOES NOT CONVERT TO PROGESTERONE IN THE BODY.
This is an intentionally misleading statement as it is technically correct, Diosgenin precurses the precursor, NOT any one specific hormone. It is misleading to infer that effective wild yam creams will not help you to produce Progesterone, which they DO in its natural sequence, along with all of your other adrenal cortex hormones. |
| • |
NATURAL PROGESTERONE!
The ONLY NATURAL PROGESTERONE is the one we produce in our body. The so called Bio-identical, or Natural Progesterone are drugs requiring a Doctors prescription (in Australia), which carry the normal warnings of side effects and contraindications - as do the Oestrogens and Testosterone bio-identicals, which are also drugs.
The consequences of inserting an externally synthesised hormone suh as bio-identical progesterone into a complex web of cross comunication and feedback and feed forward in the multiple pathways of the adrenal cortexsteroidal hormones, (see illustration on "How Anna's Wild Yam Cream Works" page) may cause biologial dysfunction with serious long term consequences.
To adjust the chemistry of this complicated interactive system requires a lot more understanding than adjusting one of the component hormones with an artificial synthesised substitute.
If you change the concentration of one hormone suh as progesterone, it just doesn't influence the action of progesterone; it profoundly influences the behaviour and functions of all the other steroid hormones preursing it and those it precurses. |
| • |
WILD YAM CREAMS CONTAIN PROGESTERONE?
In Australia the synthesized Bio Identical Progesterone is classified as a S4 (unsafe) drug requiring a medical prescription and cannot be used in over the counter creams. So the answer is NO, they do not need to incorporate drugs into a very effective natural Drug Free cream. |
| • |
WILD YAM CREAMS ARE OESTROGENIC!
This statement can only be made with the intent to mislead you, and could only be made by those that have vested interests, or questionable ethics. |
