Save My Free SeatYou used to juggle a career, a household, appointments, and a mental to-do list a mile long. Now you walk into a room and forget why. Words slip. Focus fractures. Motivation feels like it's on vacation — and sleep isn't helping.
You're not imagining it. And you're not alone. For many women, perimenopause and menopause bring changes in the brain that look — and feel — a lot like ADHD. Some women truly do have ADHD that was masked for decades. Others are experiencing hormonally-driven shifts that deserve real understanding, not a shrug.
This free session is where clarity begins.
A physician-led conversation grounded in physiology, clinical experience, and practical strategies.
How estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone influence attention, memory, mood, and executive function.
Why ADHD-like symptoms may appear — or intensify — during perimenopause, and how to think about what's actually going on.
Realistic ways to support your changing brain — sleep, stress, nutrition, movement, and informed medical conversations.

I'm a retired family physician with decades of experience caring for women. Through MenopauSanity, I offer physician-led education for women in midlife and beyond — connecting the dots between hormones, brain health, sleep, metabolism, muscle, bone, nutrition, and stress.
My goal is simple: give you the medical understanding and practical framework you need to make informed decisions about your own health — especially the parts of midlife that no one warned you about.
This session is for the woman who has been told she's fine — but knows something has shifted. You deserve a conversation rooted in physiology, not dismissal.
