Aim of the study was to determine changes in „emotional brain“ in first episode depressed perimenopausal women after 8 weeks of treatment with antidepressants, also to determine state of cognitive functions before and after antidepressant treatment. Methodology- Three perimenopausal women were tested with Green Climacteric Scale, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale, Mini Mental State Examination, Sociodemographic questionnaire, also Magnetic Resonance of the brain was done at the beginning and after 8 weeks of treatment with antidepressants with special attention to the „emotional brain“. Results show us improvement of the climacteric symptoms and depressive simptomatology, lower scores on all applied scales, as well as improvement in cognitive functioning after 8 weeks of antidepressive therapy. Also on MR scans authors observed enlargement of the hipocampal area and basal ganglia.
