Reply to comment by sciencesnob in Study finds brain changes associated with ADHD remission. As the brains of those with ADHD mature, some individuals may repetitively engage in strategies that compensate for symptoms. These repetitive behaviors may result in the brain changes seen in those who went into remission. by Wagamaga

A lot of people are not aware that estrogen diminishes ADHD symptoms and puberty can be a positive time for some ADHD peeps. Estrogen is important hormone for both males and females.

I just recently learnt all of this because I had a Progesterone only iud implanted and my ritalin stopped working. My doctor thought it was all in my mind because the dose is so small but she agreed to give me estrogen gel. She is not my ADHD doc. Estrogen helped so much. Estrogen has an enhancing effect while Progesterone has a canceling effect on ritalin. All executive function is impacted by these hormones. Just fyi
