Guest guest Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I agree with you Patricia. Most of us vegans are so because we do not want to be a part of something dieing or being tortured to provide us food. If you do the research, how the get the horse urine is pure torture. I would rather have hot flashes then to think I was a part of putting a horse through that and having her baby taken away, and usually slaughtered because there are not enough homes for them. Find another solution. Maybe another doctor.Patricia A Squyres <p.squyres Sent: Mon, October 19, 2009 2:02:25 PMRe: hormones question [1 Attachment] [Attachment(s) from Patricia A Squyres included below] I feel for you as I went thru what you are going thru for many years.By taking premarin - aptly called "the horse pee treatment"you are increasing your chances of breast cancer immensely.You should read the attached and talk to your doctor about synthetic hormone replacement which is not derived from mares being mistreated til sent to slaughter in order for Wyeth Labs to take in billions of dollars. The problem is that synthetic hormones also have their inherent risks - if you google "estrace" you can read about one of them. I ended up "sucking it up" and going cold turkey since breast cancer runs in our family. Eventually you will be free of it all - some comfort! ! !

I had a hysterectomy 6 or 7 years ago, and my doctor's had me on hormones (premarin) ever since. I've tried a couple of times to stop taking them, but the hot flashes are just beyond uncomfortable. I'm still relatively young, and the thought of taking them for who knows how long isn't a happy thought. Any suggestions?
