You’re exhausted, you finally get into bed, and suddenly your brain is wide awake. Or maybe you fall asleep just fine, only to find yourself staring at the ceiling at 3 AM. If sleep has become harder during perimenopause or menopause, it’s not something you simply have to accept as part of getting older.
In this episode, Dr. Jessica Ritch sits down with clinical psychologist and sleep expert Dr. Stephanie Silberman to explore some of the most common sleep problems women experience during this stage, including insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, and restless leg syndrome. They discuss how hormonal changes, stress, sleep habits, caffeine, alcohol, electronics, exercise, and light exposure can all affect sleep, as well as the signs that it may be time to get evaluated for a sleep disorder.
If restless nights are leaving you exhausted, frustrated, or wondering what happened to your sleep, this episode offers practical ways to understand what may be getting in the way, and how to start sleeping better.
🎧 Listen now and learn how to make better sleep a priority... not just something you hope happens at the end of a busy day.
