Common questions
Why does perimenopause affect sleep?
Hormone levels change a lot in these years, and that can bring night sweats, lighter sleep and earlier waking for some people. It does not happen to everyone, and it varies a lot. This is general information, not medical advice.
What can I try at home?
A cool, dark room, a steady wake-up time, less alcohol and caffeine late in the day, and a short wind-down are the usual first steps. A sleep diary helps you see patterns.
When should I talk to a doctor?
If poor sleep lasts for weeks, affects your days, or comes with heavy bleeding, low mood or anything that worries you, book a visit. Bring a sleep diary so the visit is short and useful. This is general information, not medical advice.
