First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 25 times
Summary
This early-stage study tested whether natural progesterone, a hormone normally involved in the menstrual cycle, could help control recurrent glioblastoma (a fast-growing brain cancer). Four patients received daily injections of progesterone to see what dose is safe and whether it can slow tumor growth. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
