Re: Birth Control Pills made with horse urine? -- No just HRT

[Guest guest]

Some Hormone Replacement (HRT) Products are made from Conjugated

Equine Estrogen, which is derived from the Pregnant Mares Urine --

such as Premarin and Prempro.

Science has made it possible to create molecules of estrogen (for

example Estradiol) that are identical to human estrogen

(bio-identical) from a vegetable source (I think the soy bean). In

my opinion this is better for women, better for horses!

(At least in the united states) the estrogen component in birth

control pills is I think exclusively Ethinyl Estradiol, which is a

synthetic estrogen (which I really do not think is derived from horse

pee or similar). I think that ethinyl estradiol is somewhat similar

to but not identical to estrardiol.

Yep, sorry typing too fast and getting all crazy remembering how pissed I get

every time I

think about my daugher's endo. My point being that there's a lot of drugs they

get from

horse's etc. so what's so bad about the lowly little " pig " . So many doctor's

use that excuse for

not wanting to use Armour, with the reference that it's somehow tained. :-)

What about pig valves being used in heart valve repair? Dumb endos.

They use pig for bladder suspensions. ( of course they are finding

out LATER that more often then not, the body absorbs it, leaving one

needing another suspension " .
