Study Summary

Female suicide attempts occur more often in the weeks before and after menses onset, and have been linked to ovarian hormone withdrawal. The proposed project will use a two-week intervention to stabilize hormones in females with recent suicidal thoughts; this paradigm is a safe way to learn how cyclical changes in hormones and their metabolites influence short-term risk of suicide. The data acquired will contribute to our understanding of the biology of acute suicide risk and advance efforts to develop safe and effective treatments that eliminate predictable monthly worsening of suicide risk in reproductive-age females.

Primary Outcome

The Adult Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire (ASIQ) is a 25-item self-report questionnaire assessing suicidality. Each day, individuals rate each of 25 items on a scale from 1 (Not at All) to 6 (Extreme). Mean scores are computed, providing a single number for each day that represents the participant's mean suicidal ideation (1 to 6), with higher daily values representing more severe suicidal ideation. Perimenstrual change scores are calculated for each person in each condition as the mean of scor
