@nourishingapothecary: Have you ever noticed that in the days before your period you suddenly feel: • More overwhelmed • More anxious • Less focused • More emotionally reactive • Like your ADHD medication isn’t working as well For some women, there may be more going on than just hormones. Emerging research is exploring the relationship between hormones, histamine and brain function. As oestrogen and progesterone fluctuate throughout your menstrual cycle, histamine activity may also change. Because histamine acts as a neurotransmitter involved in attention, emotional regulation and brain signalling, these changes may help explain why some women notice their ADHD symptoms become more challenging around ovulation or before their period. ADHD is complex, and histamine is not the cause of ADHD. But for some women, understanding these hormonal patterns can be an important piece of the puzzle. At Nourishing Apothecary, we don’t just look at symptoms in isolation. We explore the bigger picture, including your hormones, gut health, stress, nutrition and lifestyle, to understand what may be contributing to how you’re feeling. 🌿 If you’re an adult living with ADHD and would like personalised support, book a FREE discovery call with Mel, our senior naturopath. She can discuss your symptoms, answer your questions and help you decide whether our approach is right for you. 💻 Australia-wide consultations via Zoom.
