Summary

This study looked at how stress, hormonal cycles, illness, and missed medications might affect when symptoms appear or get worse in women with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RR-MS). Researchers planned to track 80 women over time, recording daily symptom changes. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
