Abstract
We explored sex education in women with histories of childhood ADHD (n=140) and matched neurotypical women (n=88) using retrospective semi-structured interviews. The ADHD sample was less likely to have received parental sex education at any age; when present, it occurred a year later than for neurotypical peers, on average.
