Hear say for new med?
 

My sister overheard talk of working on a new ms med that makes your body think it is pregnant, reason being that when you are pregnant the ms goes into remission. Has anyone heard anything about this?

Estriol, I believe is what she is talking about.

Thank you, Cheryl ... I googled and found this info:

So...what will this do for men? Just asking.....

Herekitty1960 - a Good question. I think they call them man-boo**. I know mine got bigger when I was pregnant.

It's been in clinical trial for awhile and there are men in the trial. I don't think they get pg, tho! LOL!

Let me do some searching and see if I can find some of the clinical trial information.

I've been reading about this since I first found out it was possible that I had MS. Now that I know for sure I have it, I'm intrigued by this medication.

Mostly because, if it makes your body think you're pregnant, then, I guess it would mean that women on it would probably not have a particular body function happening every month. Right??

If that's true, I'm so there for wanting to try this med!

But, then again, I'm also seriously intrigued by LDN too.

Kelley beat me to it!

Make me pregnant will ya'?:mad:

And dear Kicker, it's called gynocemastia. Moose has it.

According to this, only women will be in the study, not men. Interesting.
