Guest guest Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 There is synthetic Cenestin. .. a little more expensive. From the website... " CENESTIN (synthetic conjugated estrogens, A) Tablets is a plant- derived medicine that contains a mixture of synthetic estrogen hormones. " " Premarin® (conjugated estrogens tablets, USP), the most commonly prescribed brand of conjugated estrogens, is created from horse urine and the name actually comes from this source (PREgnant MARes' urINe).

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 No, I don't take premarin, no way. First of all it made me feel really funky, and besides that I would never take a drug that is responsible for the abuse of so many horses. The docs then put me on estrace, a synthetic hormone drug. This was great, all symptoms gone and no side effects, but alas, after reading the risks of cancers from the drug, breast et al, I took myself off of that (my mom had breast cancer so I am high risk to begin with) So now I go it alone. LOL.

Well, as someone has responded, it has to be 'news' and such abuse is kinda taken for granted. 'News' is if someone tries to expose the abuse, to protest the abuse, to stop the abuse. (And then the news becomes about stopping the protestors, of course, thus distracting from the real story of animal abuse.) I am not maligning journalists here - they have a job to do and they do it. Wrong kinds of stories just don't get published and too many unpublishable stories means no rent money. Some brave ones file them anyway. There are also books written on the subject, not just newspaper articles that are later used to wrap the garbage. And as a postscript, you will know about the FARM movement of course.
