- What we know so far about autism and menopause.
- Summary of some research that Rebecca Charlton has been doing.
- What is the impact of co-occurring conditions, and how does ADHD impact menopause experiences?
- There will be lots of time for questions and Rebecca welcomes reflections of what you think for next directions of research in this space.
