It is still so crazy that women experience hormonal cycles and changes that impact everything, but that this not considered in managing their mental health. Many of the women I work with hesitate to 'blame' their hormones for fear of falling into the 'hysterical woman' trope, but the impact is huge and needs to be recognised. Rant over! Thank you for writing this incredibly informative and well referenced piece, it has given me much to think about.

Thank you so much for the mention! Everything you wrote here resonated with me. It blows my mind that we are only beginning to understand that many, many medical issues (from mental health to heart attacks!) present differently in women vs men. I’m only starting to explore the topic myself (and am, in typical ADHD fashion, very riled up about it.)
