Acerca de esta escucha
Your ADHD didn’t just get worse for no reason—your hormones set your dopamine supply on fire.
Perimenopause tanks estrogen, and estrogen is the unsung hero of your dopamine regulation. ADHD + per/menopause isn’t just a mess—it’s a biochemical betrayal.
We break it all down in this episode of ADHD PeriPunks—raw stories, real science, and survival tools.
🎧 Hit play, tag a fellow queen of chaos, and remember: you’re not batshit crazy... You’ve just been (hopefully just temporarily lol) hormonally hijacked.
