My brain’s opinion is a definite yes. There is no one test for ADHD—Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Physicians must do the best they can with what the parents, teachers, coaches, individuals or their partners presents to them. During puberty, male and female brains are rewired—differently. The male brain has more lateralization of the two cerebral hemispheres, meaning one can be active while the other idles. The female brain has a more globalized functional style, meaning if any part is on, it is all on. It takes more energy to run second for second. Add socialization to this, personal perceptions of what ADHD symptoms and behaviors are supposed to look like, and the easy availability to the latest research, and it would not be a surprise to have some ADHD cases missed or diagnosed as something else.
