Menopause and ADHD is your ultimate guide to understanding how your hormones may influence your ADHD – and it’s a two-way street: how your ADHD impacts how your perimenopause lands for you. This book will arm you with the facts, and help you to confidently advocate for your own health and wellbeing.

Navigating menopause can be challenging for any woman, but for those with ADHD, the experience can feel like a bomb has gone off in your life. Health issues in all women are too often dismissed, misunderstood, or minimised by clinicians who label symptoms as anxiety or ‘just part of being a woman’. We are just starting to empower women to access the menopause support they deserve, but women with ADHD or other intersecting neurodivergence (often undiagnosed) are still woefully left behind in this arena.

Helen Wall is a GP with years of experience advocating for women. MENOPAUSE AND ADHD will debunk myths, tackle systemic biases, and empower you to take charge of your well-being through this period of hormonal challenge. It’s time to be heard, be informed, and be your own best health advocate.

Fantastic listen. Very informative. I will definitely listen to it again just to help me feel less alone.

Extremely knowledgeable and a caring GP. Dr Helen Walls puts others to shame.

I preordered this book as realised that my perimenopause experience was greatly worsened by my ADHD-status. Dr Wall didn't disappoint. Loved the way that each chapter concluded with a recap of primary points. Grateful that Testosterone and Progesterone were also covered. Having privately tried the former, I was the 40% for whom Testosterone didn't reduce my joint & muscle pain or brain fog, but for some it helps.

The injustice of medical research being focused on men, and GPS training ignoring perimenopause was highlighted.

The author was the ideal choice to narrate and had a wonderful, calming voice. This publication was extremely comprehensive and enlightening. My only wish is that it mentioned when HRT is not absorbed by the body. A friend had to pay for private women's health consultant support due to this issue. I was about to give up employment and was becoming increasingly isolated by not leaving the house due to the severity of my then-undiagnosrd ADHD/Perimenopause symptoms. Only by paying hundreds of pounds to receive Perimenopause treatment, was it found that I too was not absorbing the maximum dose HRT prescribed by my GP. A simple change of where to administer the gel and within days, I could function almost normally again. Originally it took a year for my GPs to prescribe HRT and they later admitted that they weren't aware lack of absorbing was an issue.

The author is correct in saying how little our clinicians know about Perimenopause and one assumes, even less about the interplay with ADHD. Thus I am recommending this excellent book to my GP friends, pals with daughters who in time will go through this lofe-change and those adults currently navigating this challenging time. Thank you so much for this book!

A long overdue, game-changer
