in sufficient ratios to help counterbalance the effect that estrogen can have on mood right so we've not got the supportive benefits of the progesterone we've got the impact of the estrogen dominating and then this is where it starts to get really interesting to me

is as I was looking, as I was going through the study, I started to notice this pattern of histamine-type symptoms in all of the women that I was working with. And we need so much more research on this, but we in the community are becoming more and more aware of this link with histamine and ADHD people, right?

We don't know what to do with the receptors in the brain, but there is this definite link. So if I add another layer to this, so when we become estrogen dominant and we're losing that antihistamine type effect of the progesterone and this estrogen is feeding this histamine, histamine is so much more than hives and sneezy noses, right? It has a massive impact on inflammation and mood.

Okay, so I'm like, okay, this is another layer that we're stepping into. If we've got this bubbling histamine issue all our lives and that protection of the progesterone goes and we're just looking at estrogen, it would make perfect sense that the histamine then steps up a notch and potentially plays a role. So this was really interesting to me.

And something else that I also thought that came through was the women that had happened to have testing done on their liver methylation pathways, how their body was processing the estrogen, also came up. Now, my study didn't have the capacity to then test all of those women. I'd have loved to. And there's actually a study going on in the Netherlands about this at the minute.

But looking at how our body is processing these estrogens could just add further fuel to the fire. So to me, it was like perimenopause created this perfect storm of everything flaring up. So no wonder we literally feel like the lid has come off. So that's a bit of a whistle-stop tour of what I believe is happening and contributing to ADHD women really struggling during this time.

That is the most perfect example you could have shared to highlight this. And you think that is you with all the knowledge you have, all the access to testing, your incredible experience and understanding of hormones. And it's still like, what's going on?
