Biomimetic

Meaning

The term biomimetic describes a substance or therapeutic agent designed to chemically or functionally imitate a naturally occurring biological molecule within the human system. In the context of hormonal health, a biomimetic hormone is chemically identical to the hormone produced endogenously, such as bioidentical progesterone or testosterone. This design principle ensures that the exogenous compound interacts with cellular receptors and metabolic enzymes with the same precision as the native hormone.
