What many of these women don't realize is that Premarin is derived from pregnant mare urine. (PREgnant MAre uRINe), and that the mares used to produce the urine are kept in inhumane conditions. Because these mares are perpetually impregnated, the foals they produce must continually be disposed of. Most are sold for slaughter and shipped to Europe and Asia for human consumption. The pain and suffering of these innocent creatures is all the more tragic when realizing that it is entirely unnecessary.
With very little effort, you can help us put an end to this tragedy.
Many natural and synthetic alternatives to Premarin already exist, and have been found to be effective in treating the symptoms of menopause.

Each year, millions of women take Premarin, a drug prescribed to alleviate
the symptoms of menopause and once believed to prevent osteoporosis.
While the NIH (National Institute of Health) study has exposed many
of the serious risks associated with HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy)and
has reduced the number of women now taking Premarin or PremPro there
remains an untold story of the dark side of the industry...
