The aim is to synthesize evidence on the role of emotional dysregulation (ED) in ADHD, its proposed neurological, hormonal, and cognitive mechanisms, treatment evidence, and differences in presentation by sex. The methodology involved two targeted PubMed searches covering the period from August 1, 2000, to August 1, 2026: in the general search, 426 records were screened, 62 remained after filtering by study type, and 29 studies were included; in the search focused on sex differences, 13 studies were included from 87 records. The 42 included studies comprised 14 experimental studies (RCTs), 16 evidence syntheses, 9 observational studies, and 3 secondary/retrospective studies; their primary focus was treatment in 20, mechanisms in 9, prevalence/course in 8, and mediators/downstream outcomes in 5. The findings indicate that more than 80% of adults with ADHD have significant emotional or oppositional symptoms, with only 17% presenting without these symptoms in one adult clinical sample; effect sizes relative to controls are approximately g = 1.2 in adults and d = 0.8–0.95 in young people. The proportion meeting ED criteria is 37% among women and 29% among men; women are 5.4 times as likely to receive a diagnosis of depression first and 3 times as likely to be treated for depression before receiving an ADHD diagnosis. Developmental data (ages 8–18; ADHD n = 264, including 76 girls; typically developing n = 153, including 56 girls) show that ED improves with age in boys but persists or worsens in girls. ED mediates the relationship between ADHD and broader impairment, including depression, social dysfunction, and disordered eating, and is additionally associated with borderline personality traits in women. The authors note that evidence for ED-specific treatment remains limited, that current screening tools largely exclude emotional symptoms, and that incorporating ED into ADHD screening and diagnostic frameworks should be considered.
