Advice & Tips
I've been on estriol and Copax since late summer/early fall last year and I've been relapse-free since 10/09. Prior to Copax and estriol, I had fresh attacks every 2-3 months from 2/09 on. Recent MRI shows no new or enhancing lesions.
Cost: $25-49 monthly

Advice & Tips
Keep in mind I've been taking this with Copaxone and vitamin D3. However, I ran out of estriol for a week and towards the end of the week my symptoms felt more pronounced. Could it have been due to decreased estriol or natural hormonal fluctuations? I don't know but I'm pretty darn careful about taking it just in case. Since beginning the cocktail of Copax., vitamin D3, and estriol, my attacks have abated significantly. Prior to the meds/supplements, I had been having significant attacks roughly every two to three months and I entertained the very real possibility that I would end 2009 in a wheelchair.

About Estriol (Prescription Drug)

Estriol (also oestriol) is one of the three main estrogens produced by the human body. It is only produced in significant amounts during pregnancy as it is made by the placenta. It is used in hormone therapy.
