What causes sleep disorders during menopause?

The sleep problems experienced by many menopausal women can be attributed to a number of factors.

Decreasing estrogen levels

Sleep physicians and gynecologists suspect that the main cause of sleep disorders is falling or low estrogen levels. During menopause, the entire hormone balance changes as the activity of the ovaries fluctuates.

Many women notice that they can no longer sleep as well when estrogen levels no longer rise quickly enough in the first half of the cycle. The reason: estrogen has an influence on metabolic processes in the brain and promotes certain Sleep phases: the deep sleep phases as well as the so-called Rapid Eye Movement (REM) phases, in which we dream and process what we have experienced. Therefore, a decreased estrogen level can lead to restless nights.

The psyche
