This month on The Premature Menocast, Nikki takes the reins solo for a special conversation with psychotherapist Jennie Canty, founder of the Chiltern ADHD Clinic. With diaries busier than ever, this episode is a one-to-one deep dive into how ADHD shows up for women, particularly around menopause, perimenopause, and POI (premature ovarian insufficiency).

Jennie shares her expertise on:

• Why ADHD in women often looks very different from the “traditional” male-based diagnostic criteria.

• How perimenopause and menopause can amplify ADHD symptoms such as forgetfulness, overwhelm, and mental hyperactivity.

• The importance of thorough, adapted ADHD assessments and therapy approaches.

• Practical treatment options — from stimulant and non-stimulant medications to adapted CBT and lifestyle strategies.

This conversation is packed with insight, compassion, and real-world advice for women navigating both ADHD and hormonal change.
