PsyQ Expertise Center Adult ADHD has collaborated with ADHD-Europe to create this international online survey about women’s experiences & health. Why? To help improve understanding about AD(H)D in women worldwide. Participation: Adults (>18yr) who identify as women and have an official AD(H)D diagnosis OR think they might have AD(H)D (self-diagnosis) are invited to participate in this survey.

In clinical practice, it is seen that AD(H)D & related problems might manifest differently in women than in men. To date, little scientific research has been done into the experiences & health of women with AD(H)D. Exploring the links between AD(H)D & health conditions to identify barriers to diagnosis, better support interventions plus a better Quality of Life 4 all. The survey collects experiences of 1000s of women about their current health to help our further research as we would like better health outcomes. Contribute to novel research & have your experiences heard by scientists, health professionals to meet our GOALS.

There is more and more awareness of AD(H)D in women, but research into AD(H)D is still mainly done in men. Also, most studies have focused on perspectives of caregivers, guardians, or health professionals, or relied on medical records – rather than asking people with AD(H)D themselves about their experiences. Important information may be missed this way. For this reason, we have created this on AD(H)D and women’s health and are providing a space for participants to offer their own perspectives and ideas for future research and/or treatments.

Working together to improve care for women – Women with ADHD often suffer from hormonal mood swings/depression or cardiac issues, or all of them. This means treatment by three different specialists, yet each of them will see just one part of the actual problem. Consequently, many women end up on as many as three long waiting lists. This needs to be tackled better and faster.
