Sixteen-year-old Alexandra Gritta works to raise both funds and public awareness for horses forced to suffer at PMU (Pregnant Mare Urine) facilities in order to produce the hormone replacement therapy drug Premarin®. Portland, OR (PRWEB) January 31, 2012 Alexandra Gritta, sixteen-year-old author and President of the Charity Book Series®, Inc., a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation, announced today her charitable gift to Duchess Sanctuary in Oakland, Oregon. Gritta's donation comes from the profit of her children's book, “Mystery at Silver Key Stables,” and her own personal fund-raising efforts. Her charitable gift of $10,000 brought another $10,000 in matching funds from the Humane Society of the United States, for a total donation of $20,000 to the Duchess Sanctuary. More than 180 rescued horses are allowed to roam free on the 1,120 acres of land at Duchess Sanctuary, a rural property outside of Roseburg, Oregon, run by the Fund for Animals in partnership with The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS).

By Peter Loftus, Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES Pfizer Inc. (PFE) is preparing to seek U.S. regulatory approval to sell a new menopause drug that could pose an alternative to the company's older hormone- replacement therapies, which have been tied to safety risks. However, repeated delays in developing the new drug, Aprela, have raised questions about its potential. Some analysts and doctors question whether regulators will approve it, and Aprela's market potential could be limited by continued safety concerns about hormone-based drugs. The New York-based drug maker expects to submit Aprela for U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval sometime this year, Olivier Brandicourt, president and general manager of Pfizer's primary care unit, said in an interview earlier this month. Brandicourt said Aprela has the potential to reduce menopausal symptoms including hot flashes and to prevent bone-thinning osteoporosis, but with a better safety and tolerability profile than older hormone-replacement therapies. "We think this is a market which is unsatisfied ... and if you can bring a hormone therapy which doesn't have the traditional side effects, we can actually lead that marketplace," Brandicourt told reporters at a November meeting. Many women stopped using hormone-replacement therapies after a large government study, the Women's Health … Continue reading →

03-01-2012 13:53 1 year on HRT (hormone replacement therapy) for male-to-female..me!! I can't even begin to express my gratitude and appreciation to everyone who's supported me along the way, thank-you; it's been an amazing year and I am sooo looking forward to the future! 🙂 A little background: born and raised in small town Alberta, in Canada, moved to the west coast in my early twenties and have been working towards transitioning ever since. I always knew I was a tad different than the other boys but didn't really find out that other "trans" people existed until i was in my late teens (oh the internet), from there i researched and thought and did everything i could to try to make my appearance match my inner workings View original post here: 1 year HRT (mtf) anniversarie woo! - Video … Continue reading →
