Fri, 08/12/2005 - 10:15
I am looking for a success story from a man who has used progesterin cream to restore bone loss caused from taking epilepsy medicine for 50 years or a long time. My friend has oseoparosis from his meds for over 50 years and had to have a vertebroplasy procedure to fix his fracures in is spine.Thank you and God bless youMary LarkinDesPlaines ,IL

I am a woman who takes progesterone cream. I have osteopenia and the bone has gotten better since I started.  I take a NATURAL progesterone. Check into a compound pharmicist.

I took Dilantin, Phenobarbital, Meboral they were the main ones when I was young. I was taking them since nine. THen as I got older started trying out all the other meds. That was in my 30's. I have tried just about everything. Have had epilepsy for 36 years. Progesterone does help the bone. I have been using it for about a year and half now. ANd already the bone has increased within six months of taken the cream. I have osteopenia. I wlll be going for a dexascan again. I am curious to see how things have gotten better. take care Lisa http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/epilepsyapproach/
