Do Vegans, Vegetarians Use Hormone Replacement Therapy?

Asked by rooeytoo (26981points) October 7th, 2009

I know some vegans and vegetarians do not use leather or products made from animals, so it made me wonder if they use Hormone Replacement Therapy? Since these hormones are derived from the urine of a pregnant mare and the collection process is not pleasant, nor is the life the horse is forced to lead during this time. Is it therefore considered animal cruelty/abuse?
