SUMMARY:Author Talk: Dr Helen Wall\, author of Menopause and ADHD
DESCRIPTION:Dr Helen Wall\, author of Menopause and ADHD talking on Tuesday\, 1st December  at 7.30pm \nIn collaboration with the wonderful\, Suffolk based Umbrella Hub \nMenopause and ADHD is your ultimate guide to understanding how your hormones may influence your ADHD – and it’s a two-way street: how your ADHD impacts how your perimenopause lands for you. This book will arm you with the facts\, and help you to confidently advocate for your own health and wellbeing. Navigating menopause can be challenging for any woman\, but for those with ADHD\, the experience can feel like a bomb has gone off in your life. \nTicket includes the book \nHealth issues in all women are too often dismissed\, misunderstood\, or minimised by clinicians who label symptoms as anxiety or ‘just part of being a woman’. We are just starting to empower women to access the menopause support they deserve\, but women with ADHD or other intersecting neurodivergence (often undiagnosed) are still woefully left behind in this arena. Helen Wall is a GP with years of experience advocating for women. \nMENOPAUSE AND ADHD will debunk myths\, tackle systemic biases\, and empower you to take charge of your well-being through this period of hormonal challenge. It’s time to be heard\, be informed\, and be your own best health advocate. \nDr Helen Wall \nDr Helen Wall is a GP Partner\, BMS-registered Menopause Specialist\, TV broadcaster\, and bestselling author of Menopause and ADHD. She is the resident doctor for BBC Breakfast and a trusted media voice on women’s health\, regularly translating complex medical issues into practical\, evidence-based advice for the public. A passionate advocate for women’s health and ADHD in midlife\, Dr Wall has a particular interest in the intersection between female hormones and brain health. Her work focuses on helping women understand how hormonal changes throughout life can influence cognition\, mood\, wellbeing\, and neurodiversity\, particularly during the perimenopause and menopause transition. \nThe Umbrella Hub bio: \nFounded by Beckie Batchelor and Onitha Jarrold\, The Umbrella Hub is a not-for-profit CIC that provides a safe\, judgment-free space for women and non-binary people aged 21+ to explore neurodiversity. Through meetups\, workshops\, and wellbeing sessions in Colchester and Suffolk\, it creates opportunities for connection\, self-discovery\, and community.
