We need to educate her on this bad decision to support Duavee when there are so many other natural ways that do not include holding a mare pregnant and hostage for her entire life just to harvest her urine.

The Inquistr reports:
What does Kim Cattrall have against women and horses? Cattrall recently teamed up with Pfizer to promote Duavee from the Premarin family of drugs, made from the estrogen rich urine of pregnant mares. (Google image).
The 58-year-old Kim Cattrall has teamed up with Pfizer to encourage menopausal women to stay in tune with their bodies and embrace the changes they undergo during menopause. The campaign, called Tune In To Menopause, features stories of Kim Cattrall’s own journey through menopause.
Well, that is part of the story, but not the whole story. Cattrall has put her name to a Duavee sponsored campaign.
A visit to the Tune In To Menopause website shows a picture of Cattrall with the legend “Kim Cattrall is NOT a DUAVEE Patient”.
Well, good for her she is not taking Duavee herself (why not?). But not good for the who knows how…

No other comments on this article??? Using PREGNANT MARE’S URINE for a menopausal drug is WRONG. It was wrong when these companies produced Premarin and its wrong now with this newly publicized drug. There are other alternatives rather than promoting this abuse of horses. And that’s what it is. I was fortunate in not having bad hot flashes or other reactions – but I was prescribed Premarin for almost a year – before I realized exactly where it came from. I stopped taking it and got thru menopause just fine. Saying that I realize not every woman can be that fortunate – so use the synthetic product! A picture of all those mares standing in narrow stalls with a urine bag attached should be shown to everyone who even thinks about taking these drugs. The other picture would be of the foals that are produced and THROWN AWAY – many times to slaughter.

I know, hard subject for most, and for those that have never experienced the love of a horse or burro, it makes it even harder for them to have sympathy.
