How to Use Wild Yam Cream

Wild Yam Cream is marketed as a natural form of progesterone, a hormone that is produced by women in their ovaries. Progesterone keeps the levels of estrogen in a woman's body in balance and is vital to women's health. Men also produce progesterone --- but in small amounts. During the menstrual cycle, women's progesterone levels drop. The producers of Wild Yam Cream claim that using natural progesterone on the skin, reduces premenstrual symptoms and menstrual pain.
