Short description: Estrogens found in horses

Equine estrogens, or horse estrogens, are estrogens found in horses.[1][2][3] They include the following:[1][2][3]

As well as their conjugates, such as estrone sulfate.

Equine estrogens are found in the human medications conjugated estrogens (Premarin) and esterified estrogens (Estratab, Menest).[1][2][3]
