We want to investigate the effect of Cipralex versus placebo on stress hormones, glucose metabolism, physical and mental health and quality of life in polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).~PCOS is characterized by menstrual deregulation, high testosterone, mail hair growth and increased stress hormones from the adrenals. Furthermore there are changes similar to those seen in diabetes.~Cipralex is known to decrease stress hormones. But no investigations are on the effect of cipralex on PCOS, or how the increased stress hormones affect the PCOS condition.~We will examine 2x20 women with PCOS. They will be randomized to Cipralex or placebo. Treatment duration is 12 weeks.
Objectives: To investigate the effect of Cipralex versus placebo on stress hormones, glucose metabolism, physical and mental health and quality of life in polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).~Treatment: 2x20 women for 12 weeks. Design: Double blinded, randomized, placebo controlled.
