Honest question about Premarin and other menopause medicine?

Who would continue to use these medicines during their menopause years if they found out that horses were abused in the making of it?
I am not preaching about how it's bad, I am just wanting to know what the general consensus would be.

For those of you who don't know, the main "ingredient" is Premarin and similar medicine is extracted from a pregnant horse's urine. It is a tedious and abusive process for the mares, as they are not allowed to move for months. This is the full story: http://www.pmurescue.org/faq.php#PMU

What are all you women's opinions on this?

thats just mean i am 2 young but if i ever here of any one taking i will tel the m ty

if it was helping me i would continue using it. i had to use premarin for a few months after reconstructive surgery from childbirth complications and i would not have discontinued its use even though i may not approve of animal abuse.
