How hormones can directly impact our ADHD
Have you noticed how your ADHD can ebb and flow throughout the month depending on where you are in your cycle, impacting your mood, focus, sleep and energy?
Today's conversation will empower you to understand why and, importantly, how you can help yourself and feel more in control of both your ADHD and hormones throughout the month.
