Wasn't this the same thing that "Lorenzo's Oil" movie was about? (not about MS but about myelin)

(A pretty fine movie, if you can ignore the politics)

Interesting, thanks for posting.

They were testing estriol (pregnancy related hormone) to see if it was why pregnancy seem to cause MS to remit.

I have MS and never felt better than when I was pregnant.

Thank you for the article; I was diagnosed with MS this past November.

Thanks for posting this. My Mother has MS and this looks quite promising!

It also amazes me how the human body becomes almost super human (like stopping a disease) while pregnant.

When my wife was pregnant with our last child, she had a bad exacerbation that put her in the hospital.

What works for some does not work for others.
