The transition is measurable
Sleep problems are very common in women, especially during the menopause transition. The figures below reflect published research.
ADULTS SLEEPING UNDER 7 HOURS
About 30% of adults sleep under 7 hours, below the recommended minimum.
HIGHER CARDIOVASCULAR RISK
Short sleep is linked to higher cardiovascular and metabolic risk.
MENOPAUSE AND SLEEP
Insomnia and disrupted sleep are among the most common transition symptoms.
METABOLIC IMPACT
Short sleep is linked to higher diabetes and weight risk.
