Have you ever wondered if what you’re experiencing in midlife is more than just perimenopause? If brain fog, overwhelm, emotional dysregulation and sheer exhaustion sound familiar, this episode is going to give you a lot to think about.
Lise is joined by Dr Helen Wall: a GP with over 25 years’ experience, a BBC Breakfast and BBC Morning Live regular and one of the UK’s leading voices on women’s hormonal health. Helen has spent years joining the dots between perimenopause and ADHD, and what she’s uncovered will resonate with so many of you.
In this episode, join Lise and discover…
Why so many women only discover they have ADHD in midlife, and why that’s not an accident
How our hormones affect the chemical messengers in our brains
The difference between perimenopause and menopause
What masking really means and the hidden cost it carries
What to do if you’re sitting there thinking ‘is this me?’
Quote of the Episode
“These are not women who’ve just suddenly woken up in perimenopause and developed ADHD. These are women who have always had things going on through their lives that never quite fitted – because what they’ve essentially done all their lives is masked.” - Dr Helen Wall
