Son's TBI

by Debbie Lewis
(Overland Park, KS)

My son had a catastrophic stroke in 2024. After years of theraphy the doctors are saying there is nothing more they can do for him. His right arm is weak and he walks with a limp. Has vision and balance issues. Of course, memory issues. He's basically given up.
I had no idea that the Natpro could help. How do I know how much to give him? Does the Natpro still help TBI?
Has anyone had success with any studies or therapies for their TBIs that you could share?

Sorry to hear of your situation. I was in sort of a same predicament and the only thing that helped was high dose orally progesterone oil. Im female so doses are lower for males. I read of a man who took 600mg and above. I say above because I assume the doses needed tweaking. Its a tough therapy and sometimes it easier to start off higher than lower, since it can trigger other hormones. Hope this helps!

Hi Debbie,

I’m not sure what happened, but I replied to your post a few days ago and only noticed now that my reply didn’t actually post.

I’m so sorry to hear about your son.

Progesterone has been studied in relation to traumatic brain injury (TBI), particularly when administered soon after the injury. In some clinical research, high doses have been administered intravenously, although I’m not in a position to say whether it would be beneficial at this stage or what would be appropriate for your son. As this is an old injury, you would have to experiment for the amount of Natpro to use. I suggest starting at 400mg per day and increase from there. Men do not have to worry about it interfering with a cycle as they do not have one.

Please have a look at Wray’s post, where she explains this in much more detail. You may find the information useful — see here.

I would also suggest reading through the Traumatic Brain Injury page. It discusses various nutrients that may be supportive, as well as Natpro Progesterone Cream. Vitamin D3 is also an important nutrient to consider. A deficiency reduces the benefits of progesterone.

I hope your son continues to improve, and I’m thinking of you both.
