'''Miroestrol''' is a [[phytoestrogen]], a plant-derived chemical that mimics the [[biological activity]] of the hormone [[estrogen]].  Miroestrol was first reportedly isolated from the Thai herb ''[[Pueraria mirifica]]'' in 1960 and thought to be responsible for the supposed rejuvenating properties of the plant.<ref>{{cite journal | title = Miroestrol - An Estrogen from the Plant ''Pueraria mirifica'' | author = Cain, J.

A comparative study of the estrogenic properties of phytoestrogens found that both deoxymiroestrol and miroestrol were comparable in activity ''[[in vitro]]'' to other known phytoestrogens such as [[coumestrol]] as 17β-oestradiol [[agonist]]s.<ref>{{ cite journal |author1=Matsumura, A. |author2=Ghosh, A. |author3=Pope, G.

Extracts of ''[[Pueraria mirifica]]'' reportedly containing miroestrol are marketed as dietary supplements intended to lead to breast enhancement in women.  However, there is a lack of conclusive evidence for such claims.  The [[Federal Trade Commission]] has taken legal action against marketers for these unproven claims.<ref>{{ cite web | url = http://www.ftc.gov/os/2002/12/vdicmp.pdf | title = Federal Trade Commission v.
