Premarin is made from Pregnant Mares urine.
For six months of the year the mares are outside, where they are annually impregnated. The mares, stabled inside for the other six months of the year, are restrained in a variety of ways, with plastic urine-collection bags in place. These bags can limit movement on their own, but many of these horses are restrained part or all of the time, further restricting natural movement. Morbidity can result, with infection and other skin injury resulting from the urine bags, and the restriction of movement can also lead to disability. Fluid (water) intake is severely restricted, as well.[citation needed] Most horses have a far shorter life-span in this environment than would be expected.
Be aware of premarin cruelty and inform your Transgender friends who may not know.
