Summary
This study will test whether short-term suppression of ovarian function can ameliorate
androgen (male hormone) overproduction in overweight girls with androgen excess. The
investigators hypothesize that one dose of depot leuprolide agonist administration will
improve androgen levels in girls with ovarian androgen overproduction. Specifically, this
intervention will improve androgen levels after ovarian stimulation testing with recombinant
human chorionic gonadotropin (rhCG).
