I would be interested to know more about how important support networks are at this time. I know i have less family support but have made some new autistic female friends through a local autism charity that has hugely helped.

a lot of people as you say mask their traits and it would be interesting to have a fuller figure of everyones experience so that we can plan and put in action a way forward

Given the disrupted careers, or lack of work opportunities, many Autistic people have experienced it would be good to have more research on the impact of Autistic perimenopause / perimenopause on career paths, early retirement etc.,

Differential responses to HRT both oestrogen and progesterone in autistic/neurodiverse women. However, am aware that so much variability in neurotypical population makes it difficult to determine any differences

My GP was unhelpful with my son who could not verbalise his issues. He just said if you can't tell me I can't help you and ended the consultation!

Some of the existing research is alarming - how little support autistic people have who are experiencing menopause and how difficult it is for them to discuss this with health care providers. Existing research needs to be disseminated within healthcare and used to drive change - training, supports, etc.

The extent of lesser-known symptoms - and why/where they come from - eg. autonomic system seems to be the root of lots of things, but nobody ever explains how that works.

I'd also like to know the impact on autistic menopause for people who haven't had children, is it any medically or mentally different? Women like me who haven't ever had a child tend to be in the minority.

I think it would be helpful to have control groups of neurotypical participants in research - some of the research describes experiences which I think could be similar for non-autistic participants experiencing menopause...? It would be helpful to know how different the experience is.

The intersection of autism, mental health and menopause, and the relationship with suicidality in women.

I'd also be interested to know more about how we are supposed to manage all of this while working and managing a home (often with other neurodivergent family members), in the context of how difficult it can be to access benefits and / or other kinds of support such as a personal assistant for autistic / adhd women.

I suspect HRT works for all autistic with the correct bioidentical product, at the top doses, and in balance. Food sensitivities are causing many problems, but autistic resist the AIP diet. Food addiction is triggered with low estradiol. Low dose naltrexone is additional treatment. Vitamin D levels must be strong. Many don’t pursue the ADD meds needed. It’s complex. But it can be done.

Research the experiences and needs of autistic women with menopause across European countries (or world wide)

Identify best practice

Try out new services that might make sense and evaluate

Roll out information and best practice to health care providers in general and autism organizations

I'm very sensitive and prefer evidence-based phytotherapy (not homeopathy!)

Make a macro-analysis of what's out there already (for menopause in generall with a focus on symptoms frequently experienced on the spectrum eg emotional/sensory upheaval)

and/or research promising plants (eg with Dr. Monica Gagliano for faster results)

Ho do autistic women feel after they went through the (many) years of change? I assume they'd feel more stability again but what about their energy levels e.g.?
