Brief Answer:
symptoms different for both.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.

I do not think there are any similarities between ADD and menopausal symptoms.

At the most, mood swings can be a common symptoms between two.

There are standardised rating scales which can correctly diagnose ADD.

I think you should discuss this with your doctor.

If the symptoms are persisting after treatment, i think hormonal replacement should be considered.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
