Female Hormones and ADHD with guest speaker Dr Lotta Borg Skoglund

Are you a woman with ADHD who has been told you’re too much, not enough, or simply difficult?

Overview

Many women and AFAB people spend years being overlooked or misunderstood, especially when ADHD interacts with hormonal shifts across puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause.

This session focuses on the interaction of hormones and ADHD for girls and women, why so many have been missed, and what happens when fluctuating hormones amplify overwhelm, emotional intensity, and cognitive load.

What you’ll learn

  • How ADHD presents differently in girls and women and why it’s so often invisible.

  • The hormonal factors that influence focus, mood, regulation, and burnout across the reproductive lifespan.

  • Why symptoms escalate during transitions (puberty, PMS, pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause).

  • Practical strategies for navigating hormonal sensitivity, emotional regulation, and periods of increased cognitive load.

  • Insights from the ADHD 24/7 model to help you understand your patterns and strengths.

Who should attend

  • Women and AFAB people exploring ADHD (diagnosed or self‑identified).

  • Anyone experiencing hormone‑linked fluctuations in focus, mood, or overwhelm.

  • Parents, partners, or professionals supporting neurodivergent women.
