Memory Support for Hormonal ADHD Fluctuations

·1 min read

Hormonal shifts can intensify ADHD symptoms, especially memory lapses around the luteal phase. Build adaptive systems that respond to your cycle so you’re not blindsided each month.

Map Your Cycle

Track pattern changes

Log focus levels and forgetfulness daily. Research indicates that oestrogen fluctuations influence dopamine regulation and working memory.^[1]^

Share patterns with Chaos

Tag days in the app where memory slips spike so the assistant can increase reminders or offer lighter workloads.

Adjust Cognitive Load

Front-load clarity

During high-focus days, document processes and record voice memos explaining ongoing tasks. Later, Chaos replays them as cues when you’re foggier.

Schedule kind buffers

Block extra review time before deadlines. The assistant nudges you to double-check key items and links you to our seven-day memory bootcamp.

Support Emotional Wellbeing

Compassionate reminders

Ask Chaos to send gentle messages acknowledging hormonal shifts. Studies highlight that self-compassion improves adherence to coping strategies.^[2]^

Your cycle will fluctuate; your systems shouldn’t. Adaptive reminders keep memory steady even when hormones wobble.
