ADHD impacts women through major life transitions, like motherhood. Studies show 58% of women with ADHD experience postpartum depression, vs. 14–19% of the general population. Learn more in our 6-part ADHD series: buff.ly/4Q63ztY #ADHD #WomensHealth

Women with #ADHD experience 200–400% more menopausal symptoms than the general population. ADHD doesn’t disappear with age, it changes. Learn more in our 6-part ADHD series and help close the knowledge gap: buff.ly/4Q63ztY

I too suffer from this triad. And the pressure to mask my reality as a founder and freelancer is enormous. What funding will I lose because of discrimination? What job will be taken because some perceived confidence was lost? #womenshealth nationalworld.com/health/how-wom…

One of our core initiatives at Asterisk is to be inclusive of ALL women. This means a granular list of all global ethnicities was a non-negotiable, even from our first iteration. #womenshealth only improves if all women are heard. Join us. #desci asteriskdao.xyz

#ADHD research has long centered male symptoms, leaving many girls and women overlooked, misdiagnosed, or dismissed. Astra is changing that. She'll help you notice what you need. Join our waitlist today: buff.ly/sAHxhvX

For many women, an ADHD diagnosis brings clarity after years of shame, confusion, and being misjudged. We’ve built a space where women’s real experiences drive research that sees them clearly and serves them better. Join our waitlist today: buff.ly/sAHxhvX

We’re here now talking #womenshealth and data ownership. Let’s gooooo! 🚺

ADHD was long considered a “boys’ disorder,” and that bias still shapes who gets diagnosed. That means many are misdiagnosed, or missed altogether. Be part of the solution to finally understand how ADHD shows up in women. Join the Astra waitlist today: buff.ly/sAHxhvX

Is #ADHD different in women? You betcha. Unfortunately, the questionnaire and clinician outlook is still framed for male-dominate symptoms. Our deep-dive report digs into that bias. open.substack.com/pub/asteriskda…

Excited to have @asteriskdao on next week to share exciting updates on the amazing work they are doing to advance women’s health!

That means women’s most pressing health issues are still underfunded—and often invisible in the data that shapes care. We’re here to change that. Join our waitlist today: buff.ly/rGlEm8O

Ohey we went #viral on TikTok again. 150k views and counting. Let's go #womenshealth!!! vm.tiktok.com/ZNdfwE2cd/

That number speaks volumes—it’s not nearly enough. The system isn’t built for us. So we’re building something new; women deserve to be more than a footnote in the future of health research. Join our waitlist today: buff.ly/rGlEm8O
