So you want to know about Premarin
Premarin is a drug that started in 1942 and has come out in many different forms, pills, injections, creams, patches. It is used by women going through menopause, women who have had a hysterectomy to nearly eliminate the risk of getting osteoporosis (brittling of bones) and to reduce the chance of them contracting Heart disease. On the other hand Premarin is known to increase the risk of breast cancer up to 70% after nine years of use and the chances of getting edometrial cancer were suggested to be 5.6 times greater when using estrogen exceeded seven years.
Premarin is made out of pregnant mares (females) urine (wee) and the mares are kept in unsainitary conditions.
They are kept in a stalls just 8 feet by 3 1/2 feet by 5 feet which is about the size of a normal size dining table. They are kept in the stalls for about 7 out of there 11 month pregnancy only able to move a few steps forward or back and cannot comfortably lie down. They are rarely if ever taken out of their stalls or urine collecting harness for exercise. so for seven months they are near total immobility. This often leads to leg ailments, swollen legs, and cripples many mares due to the hard floor without any bedding.
They are watered sparingly as PMU farmers are paid for how concentrated the urine is. The urine cups are attached firmly to the mares urethra to catch the urine. Having it on so often chaffs the mares belly raw and causing sores on the mares legs and vulvas. Many mares suffer from urinary trast infections also but they cannot administer antiboitics to fix the aliments because it will contaiminate the urine!!
Because of the way the urine cup is strapped the mares cannot lie down properly. The urine travels from the collection cup through to hoses that lead to plastic containers on the ground in front of the mares stall for collection and shipment.
When the mare has been in the stalls for about 7 months she is taken "offline" to have her foal. Once the foal has been born they are usally taken to a slaughter farm. Although some of the fillies are used in the Premarin farms once they are able to conceive (20-24 months).
Because of this treatment many mares live to less than expected. About one forth of them are replaced each year.
