For decades, women with ADHD have been overlooked and undiagnosed. That’s finally beginning to change. But there’s still so far to go. That’s where The ADHD Channel for Women comes in. We’re a channel made by women with ADHD, for women with ADHD. And we’re talking about the things we want to hear. Women with ADHD need (good!) information, smart takes on ADHD topics, and so much more. Hang out with Cate Osborn and guests as they discuss ADHD, relationships, and sex on Sorry, I Missed This. Get answers to ADHD questions you didn’t know you had from Dr. Monica Johnson on ADHD and…. Or join journalist Rae Jacobson on Hyperfocus for deep dives, personal stories, and real talk about neurodivergence.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-16T14:18:46.908508+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/missunderstood-the-adhd-in-women-channel-6934781"},"episode":{"title":"ADHD and perimenopause: Why your symptoms are suddenly worse","slug":"adhd-and-perimenopause-why-your-symptoms-are-suddenly-worse","published_at":"2026-06-16T04:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/missunderstood-the-adhd-in-women-channel-6934781/adhd-and-perimenopause-why-your-symptoms-are-suddenly-worse","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/missunderstood-the-adhd-in-women-channel-6934781","url":"https://www.understood.org/en/podcasts/adhd-channel/adhd-perimenopause","audio_url":"https://mgln.ai/e/1245/afp-935247-injected.calisto.simplecastaudio.com/1a7154d3-8c76-4ded-a925-5975fa97f65a/episodes/d933d84d-0822-460d-9912-eda6cda2585d/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=1a7154d3-8c76-4ded-a925-5975fa97f65a&awEpisodeId=d933d84d-0822-460d-9912-eda6cda2585d&feed=60WJALk_","summary":"If your ADHD symptoms have spiked out of nowhere, perimenopause might be the culprit.
