You know, I know certainly in the UK, we have this kind of like conveyor belt, you know, come and get your HRT, we'll slap this patch on you, off you go. Okay, you imagine how many women are going, this is meant to help me and I feel horrific. And no one is making these connections. You know, they're being exacerbated.

They're feeding this inner narrative that so many neurodivergent women tend to have already is that they're not good enough. There's something wrong. We gaslight ourselves. We think we're too much. We're too over the top. We're too dramatic. All these things. And so we sit with this stuff and think there's something wrong with us.

And it's just no one's informed enough to say, right, you know, you're a neurodivergent woman. If you're someone who chooses to go down the route of HRT, what considerations do we need to take into because you have ADHD?

we know you're more likely to have this histamine reaction and methylation issue in relation to estrogen our current practice here is when a woman's on hrt and they don't feel good what do they say up your estrogen yeah it drives me nuts we've got women on dangerously high levels of eastern and they don't need estrogen they're not methylating it they're flaring up these histamine things they're getting awful periods and moods

And we're just going, oh, just our pure estrogen. It's crazy to me, this system that we're operating in. So that was a perfect example. Thank you for sharing that.

Yeah. And, you know, I love, there's so many things to speak to there. You know, this postnatal time is a massively vulnerable time for ADHD women. We know the Journal of Psychiatry in 2021 did a study that showed we're much more risk of PMDD. We're much more risk of postnatal depression. We have a much, we have a greater risk of having a harder perimenopause. You

And quite often when I see women, they're like, I'm just the most awful person to my husband. I'm the worst mom in the world. I find myself behaving in a way that I would hate myself. And then that judgment comes in and they're mortified at what they've done because we're forgetting that these are the most powerful biochemicals in the body and your brain's covered in receptors for them.
