Following recruitment, the women will have a two-months running-in period, documenting their experience of PMS symptoms, to provide a baseline record. Thereafter, women will be randomised to saffron or identical looking placebo on a 1:1 ratio, using a computer generated
code. Women will be seen pre trial, at the end of the two-months running-in period, and at 2, 4 and 6 months after the start of medication.

All children receive prescribed Growth hormone 67 µg/kg bodyweight/day. Non-responders (∆HV SDS<+1) will be excluded after 1 year of treatment on this fixed dose (67 µg/kg/day), and treatment will be stopped. This year can be considered a running-in period, followed by stratification of patients to treatment arms. Non-responders will be followed in parallel with the responders, and evaluated according to the protocol.
