ADHD or Perimenopause?
from The Elise Tzurkov Podcast · host etzurkov
Most women in perimenopause are suddenly told they haveADHD—but what if it’s not ADHD at all? In this episode, I challenge the surge in midlife ADHD diagnoses, revealing how perimenopause can mimic classic ADHD symptoms like brain fog, distraction, and overwhelm. As hormones shift, yourbrain changes—but that doesn’t mean you’re broken. You’ll learn how perimenopause impacts focus, why self-diagnosing ADHD can mislead you, and what your body is actually signaling. Before you label yourself, understand this: is it truly ADHD—or is your perimenopause brain asking for a different kind ofsupport?Learn about our customized coaching program: https://ffwehealthcoaching.com/4f-2246FREEBIES available on my website: https://www.functionallyfitwithelise.com/Stay connected with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/functionallyfitwithelise/?hl=enStay connected with me on via email: https://functionallyfitwithelise.kit.com/functionally-fit-newsletterJoin my free Facebook Group: http://www.facebook.com/groups/383975962844507/
