Did you know that ADHD has been linked to patients with joint hypermobility, pain and dysautonomia?

Given that endometriosis is now being associated more and more with hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and hypermobility spectrum disorders, as well as POTS and dysautonomia, that means that there could be a reasonable percentage of people with endo also living with ADHD.

So today on the podcast, I’m joined by Adele Wimsett to discuss this topic further. Adele Wimsett is a Women’s Health Practitioner specialising in cyclical awareness, education, hormone balance and ADHD.

After being diagnosed with ADHD at 41, Adele went onto discover the many ways in which hormones and the stages of the menstrual cycle can affect ADHD traits.

In today’s episode, Adele shares with us her story, the ways in which hormones impact ADHD and how we can work with our cycles to improve our experience of ADHD.

In this episode we discuss:
