ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast 9. How to advocate for yourself with ADHD and peri-menopause
"Women are intelligent, they've adapted."
I'm bringing you a bonus episode today with Dr Emma Ping, a menopause specialist with an interest in ADHD women. Dr Ping works alongside other menopause specialist doctors at Menopausecare.co.uk.
Dr Emma Ping is passionate about offering women holistic, patient-centred, bespoke advice and support, enabling them to be empowered and maximise their wellbeing and long-term health at any age. And is a firm believer that is never too late to start improving your life.
Kate and Dr Ping talked about:
- Awareness around our cycles and using a symptom tracker to understand the changes we're feeling
- Advocating for yourself with your doctor to get the best care possible around managing your hormones and ADHD
- How testosterone can potentially play a part in helping us feel better during the menopause
- Why menopause training amongst physicians is only just catching up
- How to marry NHS and private care in ensuring you're helped thoroughly with your menopause symptoms and ADHD
