Hormone therapy is not omnipotent For a long time, corticosteroids have been widely used in the treatment of MS, and many patients have even formed a dependence on hormones, which seems to have become an omnipotent drug whether in the period of attack or remission, which is an extremely wrong concept. This is an extremely wrong concept. There should be a correct understanding of hormone therapy: 1. Corticosteroids are only a treatment to control the disease attack, which can help to accelerate the relief of symptoms and reduce the serious consequences of the disease attack, but it has no effect on the natural course of MS, that is to say, the number of relapses of the patient, the frequency of relapse, and the speed and degree of disease progression do not change due to the application of hormones. 2, the long-term application of corticosteroids will produce serious adverse effects, including osteoporosis, femoral head necrosis, hypertension, diabetes, mental symptoms, etc., these adverse effects even beyond the MS itself disease harm to the body. 3. Short-term high-dose hormone shock therapy is more effective and produces fewer adverse effects in the treatment of MS episodes compared with long-term medium-low-dose maintenance therapy. Therefore, in the treatment of MS, we recommend the use of short-term high-dose corticosteroid shock therapy, and only limited to the treatment of acute relapse of the disease.
