FDA takes a stand against bio-identical hormones

In a press conference, the FDA admitted that no adverse event involving compounded bio-identical estriol has ever been reported. Research involving 15,000 women funded by the Department of Defense and conducted at Kaiser-Permanente Oakland found that women who produced the most estriol during their first pregnancy had 58% less breast cancer over the next forty years.

Every woman who has ever had a menstrual cycle or been pregnant knows that natural estriol is both safe and effective. Estriol is a major estrogen throughout a woman’s reproductive years, and soars to enormous levels (up to a thousand times) during pregnancy.

How can bio-identical estriol, identical to every woman’s natural estriol, be unsafe or ineffective? And how can the FDA claim that a substance present in our bodies from the dawn of humanity is a “new and unapproved drug”? - from HOME Coalition http://homecoalition.org/
