Did you guys know that if you have adhd that you are more likely to go through perimenopause starting in your mid 30s?!? I swear I had no idea until recently! It explains my hot flashes, night sweats, heart palpitations, and even my itchy ears!! It’s not fair!! 😩 my brain finished developing only for it to swing into perimenopause!! I feel too young to go through this but I’m 37 and have been suffering the last few years. Oh and cuz hormones in this stage fluctuates it’s not like i can get my hormones checked and get the answers and on top of that so many doctors don’t think it can happen this young!! So i figured i share this news with you all just in case you are like me and wondering why you are sweating in cold weather… 🙃
And maybe start talking with your mothers and daughters about this cuz im warning my daughter cuz my mom didn’t tell me shit about this phase and she’s dead so I gotta learn the hard way!
