Hormones are powerful chemical messengers that influence nearly every aspect of our physical and mental well-being. They play a critical role in regulating mood, energy levels, focus, and emotional resilience. When our hormones are in balance, we often feel our best—motivated, clear-headed, and emotionally steady. However, when hormonal levels fluctuate or become imbalanced, the effects can be profound, especially for individuals managing conditions like ADHD.
Hormonal imbalances can manifest in a variety of ways, including increased anxiety, depression, irritability, and difficulty concentrating. For people with ADHD, these symptoms can be even more pronounced.
