How Healthy are Bioidentical Hormones?

Karen has been seeing a new doctor since August.  She is very happy with her new doctor and feels much more confident about being able to deal with menopause.  Her old doctor had originally prescribed an estrogen replacement.  After she had been on those pills for about three years he said she needed to stop taking them because they could cause devastating side effects.  Her doctor told her that she would just have to live with the discomfort of menopause.  Her new doctor gave her a prescription for Bioidentical Hormone. In just a couple of weeks they have made a big difference in her life.
