This study looks at how a hormone called oxytocin affects the brain's reward system in women. If you are a healthy woman with a natural menstrual cycle or on birth control pills, you may be able to join and help researchers understand how oxytocin influences emotions and motivation.
This study looks at how hormones affect a noninvasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), which uses a mild electrical current to stimulate the brain. It may help researchers understand how to personalize brain stimulation treatments for conditions like depression or chronic pain.
This study looks at how natural menstrual cycles and ovarian stimulation (which mimics some fertility treatments) affect brain activity and hormone levels. Researchers want to understand normal brain changes during the cycle to help improve fertility treatments.
This study looks at how changes during menopause affect your brain, health, and thinking. You'll have an MRI scan and do some tests to see how your body and mind are doing.
This Phase 4 study uses brain imaging and daily questions to understand how contraceptive hormones may affect reward and brain signals. You may be able to join if you meet the health, birth-control, and safety requirements for MRI.
This study looks at how endometriosis treatment affects the health of brain blood vessels. You will get one of two standard endometriosis treatments, and the researchers will measure your brain and blood vessel function with an MRI and other tests.
