ADHD and Hormones EP209

ADHD in adult women has increased dramatically over the last couple of years. Sometimes the diagnosis is missed when a woman is young, and she’s diagnosed later in life. Other times ADHD is misdiagnosed as anxiety, depression, PMS. Or symptoms are simply overlooked because ADHD presents differently in women compared with men. In addition, symptoms of ADHD in women might exacerbate during times of hormonal fluctuation, either throughout the monthly cycle or during a particular life phase such as puberty, pregnancy, or menopause. If you have ADHD, or have a woman in your life who does, you may have asked these questions:Why is my ADHD worse on some days?Why is my ADHD worse on my period?Can ADHD medication affect your period?How does estrogen affect ADHD?Cody answers these questions and so much more in today's episode. Once we understand our hormones, and the changes they undergo, we can begin to see the connection with our symptoms. This is an empowering place from which to make lifestyle change.
