Hormonal connection to Misophonia?

[Guest guest]

A colleague of mine has remarked on the coincidental timing of misophonic onset

with hormonal changes and imbalances. We are interested in exploring this link,

and value your feedback.

From what we have read, hormones modulate sensitivity to the outside world,

control aspects of the brain and make certain tendencies more or less capable of

eliciting behaviour. What is the interplay between the brain and hormones as

related to misophonia? Is this where we should be looking for answers? And if

so would hormonal therapy produce results?

Puberty is quite obviously in the equation, but we wonder whether anyone with

later onset misophonia can recall hormonal changes/imbalances around that time?

Or perhaps another " trauma " of sorts that may have kicked off a hormonal

change? Hormones play a major role in the fight/flight response, and apparently

can produce rage as well ( just consider the effects of P.M.T ).

Anyone out there have a better knowledge of all this, and can comment and help

with this avenue of investigation?

Many thanks,

Tara

We look forward to your replies.
