Maybe: Many women experience mood changes before their periods and mood effects that capacity to focus whether or not you have adhd so you are probably asking the Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) to do more than help with the adhd.

Hormones: Decrease in the effect of of Adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) related to hormone levels during menstruation have been described. I do not treat adhd so i don't know the exact hormones involved. Some women benefit from increased doses during the period. You should talk to your doctor about this.
