You are probably wondering why do we use the word, "bioidentical"? That's an excellent question. I can remember back when I was in first year medical school learning biochemistry at the University of Illinois in Chicago. Our class used Lehninger's classic textbook of biochemistry. Lehninger never used the word, bio-identical hormones, because all hormones are by definition, bioidentical hormones. They simply used the word, "hormone". Using a word like "bioidentical" was simply redundant and unnecessary for a biochemistry textbook, as it should be today.
Why are the smart women switching to bioidentical hormones?
Bioidentical hormones are safer and more effective than chemically altered synthetic hormones.
