This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Researchers want to understand whether young women with premature ovarian insufficiency—a condition where the ovaries stop working before age 40—are at higher risk for dangerous heart rhythm problems. The study will measure each participant's heart electrical activity using an electrocardiogram (ECG) and compare hormone levels in women with this condition to healthy women of the same age.
Early menopause disrupts the body's natural hormones, which play an important role in protecting the heart's electrical system. Doctors worry these women might be at higher risk for life-threatening heart arrhythmias, but we don't yet have clear evidence. This study will help doctors decide whether these patients need special heart monitoring or need to avoid certain medications.

If you join, you will have your heart's electrical activity measured with a simple, painless ECG test. Blood samples will be taken to measure your hormone levels. Healthy volunteers and women with early menopause will be matched by age and body size so researchers can compare the two groups fairly. The study is still recruiting participants and visits will occur at a Paris hospital.
