Have you reached perimenopausal age and started to notice that the scaffolding and coping mechanisms you may have used for so long are not working as they used to?

If you're confused about hormones and keep hearing lots of different information on social media, this week's More Yourself episode is for you.

In this clip from our first-ever ADHD Women's Wellbeing Live event, Adele Wimsett, whose groundbreaking Perfect Storm study explores the intersection of perimenopause and ADHD, cuts through the noise with clarity, warmth and real practical insight.

So many of us don't realise the science behind why our coping mechanisms stop working during perimenopause. We think it's an "us" problem. Adele is here to gently talk us through the complex relationship between hormones and ADHD in a genuinely eye-opening way!

In this episode, we explore:

• What hormones actually are and what they do in your body
• How hormones change throughout your cycle and the impact this has on ADHD
• Why misinformation around progesterone exists and what Adele's study "The Perfect Storm" teaches us about ADHD and perimenopause
• Why tracking your hormones can be a game-changer for ADHD
• Why old coping mechanisms stop working when women reach perimenopause
• The power of advocating for women's health and personalised treatment If you've ever felt like your body is working against you, this conversation might be the one that finally makes it make sense.
