Conclusion: Findings provide novel evidence of ADHD symptom profiles in hormonal contexts unique to females, supporting anecdotal clinical experiences and reflecting a need for further research. Understanding how hormonal phases experienced by females may interact with ADHD symptoms is integral to effective management and care.

Funny how that's not what the conclusion says at all

Self-report data suggested most participants perceived a worsening of ADHD symptoms during the postpartum period (70.4 %) and menopause (97.5 %)

New evidence of ADHD symptom profiles in relation to hormonal stage/context.

That seems to match the graph - as in the profiles are different depending on the hormonal phase the symptoms will occur more or less frequently?
