Progesterone can cut death risk in traumatic brain injury
A recent study has shown that certain traumatic brain injury patients may have their death risk cut in half with the administration of progesterone.Exerpt:
"We found encouraging evidence that progesterone is safe in the setting of traumatic brain injury, with no evidence of side effects or serious harmful events," said Dr. Wright. "In addition, we found a 50% reduction in the rate of death in the progesterone-treated group. Furthermore, we found a significant improvement in the functional outcome and level of disability among patients who were enrolled with a moderate brain injury."
