Menopause and Insomnia: Link, Duration, and Remedies

How Long Will Insomnia Linked to Menopause Last?

The answer can vary, depending on certain factors. Each person experiences different signs and symptoms during menopause. Therefore, the length of insomnia linked to this period is not the same. The hormone levels of a person may begin to fluctuate around 7 to 10 years before the last period. After this phase, they may continue to experience problems, such as hot flashes or mental issues, for a couple of years. Nevertheless, it is important to know that some therapies and treatment options are available to help reduce symptoms of insomnia. You should also focus on dealing with other factors that may lead to poor sleep quality. [7]
