Mark,


You are referring to progesterone's ability to reduce brain inflamation and cease the cell death cascade that occurs after a brain injury. What you didn't mention is that researchers have discovered that progesterone has demonstrated ability to repair the mylien sheath that insulates the axon, which is the most common part of the neuron to be damaged in a concussion. This is the reason researchers are cautiously optimistic that it could help repair chronic brain injuries.

Once the research is concluded on progesterone treatment for acute brain injuries, researchers will begin branch studies to see what impacts it will have on other neurological conditions, such as chronic brain injury, dementia, stroke, etc... These are the studies that we would theoretically be eligible to participate in, and these are the studies I was referring to.
