We knew it.
We always knew it.
And now we have the proof.
A study of over 5000 women (Jakobsdóttir Smári et al, 2025) found the following:
🤔ADHDers have a higher prevalence of severe perimenopausal symptoms
🤔Perimenopausal symptoms kick off at an earlier age in ADHDers
For every woman who’s wondered whether it’s “all in your head.” For every woman who has felt gaslit by the medical profession. We finally have the science to show that we were RIGHT.
ADHDers are more likely to have issues related to female hormones.
ADHDers feel WORSE during times of hormone changes.
And I’m not talking about hot flushes and night sweats (although they’re a problem too!).
➡️I’m talking about anxiety, depression and mental health.
➡️I’m talking about the sudden increase in insomnia and sleep issues.
➡️I’m talking about focus, memory and executive function going out the window.
➡️I’m talking about that uncontrollable RAGE.
➡️I’m talking about that moment that so many ADHDers have in perimenopause when they wonder “could this actually be dementia?” (And then we spend our late nights Googling dementia symptoms - am I right?)
BUT... before you throw your hands up in the air, thinking “that’s it - I’m completely screwed,” I’m here to tell you that there’s SO MUCH we can do to help!
