* Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is a synthetic form of the hormone estrogen that was prescribed to pregnant women between 1940 and 1971 to prevent miscarriage, premature labor, and related complications of pregnancy. * Women who took DES during pregnancy have an increased risk of breast cancer. * Increased risks of clear cell adenocarcinoma of the vagina and cervix and of breast cancer have been found for daughters of women who took DES during pregnancy; fertility problems are also more common among these daughters. The vet assured me that there is no danger to a woman giving these to the dog unless she drinks the dog's urine. They make soft formed tablets which the dog enjoys eating and I can cut them with the scissors. (I get them at the vet's office, so I assume they form them.) The other choice is the PPA, but you have to give that every day and I think it only helps 70% of dogs.
